If you ride the trail from the trailhead up by fish lake to the bottom it
takes 3-4 hrs if you are going fast. So I would not ride dirt up. You would
be looking at a 8+ hr mega epic. Even riding the road up it is gonna take 6+
hrs. Ride the rd up or shorten the ride.
If you rode the dirt up just turn around when you feel halfway done, you
will not get to the top.
If you wanna ride only dirt and go higher start from deer creek instead.
