I believe (and feel free to correct me if you've done it) the dirt descents in BWR are category 4, so a mile or 2. The big thing is descending, that's where I'm going to lose tons of time if I don't do it well. I don't necessarily want to kill myself going up, because its more the technicalites I have to learn.
