Gentle singletrack turns into steep ridable switchbacks up Meadows, the most challenging climb in the Aliso Wood Canyon wilderness park. After a brief pavement stint to Top of the World you'll travel along the undulating West Ridge fireroad to your ultimate destination, Rock-It. Rock-It is the most well-known downhill trail in Aliso Woods as it is known for providing riders with a variety of challenges. This is a great loop if you'd like a challenging climb followed by a rewarding descent.

09/13/12 First time up Meadows. Not bad. I find Mathis more effort. Nearly crashed on Ridgeline Trail stopping/dismounting for a dog. Some mountain biker thought it was a good idea to bring his "trail dog" to Aliso and let it run directly into oncoming riders at high speed. Here's to YOU, Captain Douchebag, for making Aliso annoying even on weekdays.
