I feel like I'm a spokesman for this joint but man this guy can make a lineup. Jefferson liquor factory has Nugget nectar, 077xx, overhead and creeker for growler fills. The Ithaca Creeker is $24 but well worth it.
That climb was tough and I tried to clear those step ups on the first right but clearly should have stayed left. Next time I'll get the granny prepped for that beast.
Thanks for posting that ride, the Observatory climb is a top 10 for sure. We made a couple wrong turns but figured it out. Loved the newer stuff with the switchback climb across Nassau Rd as well.
If you leave from the main lot follow the white trail to you hit the 3 tier climb (strava segment). The climb is much easier and going down you can gap the last 2. Lower maze is also cleared with some new single track and includes the original "q" segment.
