Description

This road starts in town, and is closed to motor vehicles. It begins at the intersection of the west side of Perimeter Trail as it climbs up from 48th St. You can access Quemazon Trail from Pipeline, as well as Guaje Ridge Trail #285. The climb is steep, rough, and unrelenting but the views are excellent.
