Nice, thanks for the info!

i think i'll try the trail on my cross bike and stick my nobby tires back on

I'm sure OTG-ZR2 would be down once he gets his bike

You're basically riding up the backside of Mt. Fromme from Mountain Highway to access the ski resort area. There are a ton of mountain bike trails that are accessed off this gravel road, and also a nudist camp too off one of the switchbacks. I've only ever bothered riding up to the 7th switchback on my mountain bike. If you keep on going up you will end up at the Grouse. I can't imagine that climb being fun in any way/shape/form on 23c tires and road bike gearing. FWIW a lot of mountain bikers push up the road anyways, and ride the trails back down.
