The first part of Engelsmann Loop is fairly uninteresting, but this relatively recent, windy singletrack segment that is aimed at bypassing a steep and eroded climb on what used to be the fire road continuation of Engelsmann Loop, is quite fun as it lazily meanders while climbing at a gentle rate. Plus, in my book, any new singletrack is a welcome change over the fire road that it replaces.
