A very simple smooth trail. Fast rolling. After descending Tline2Town, right turn onto Crosstown to descend down to Rhododendron, Oregon via the Pioneer Bridal Trail. If you parked at Ski Bowl or want to hit the Ski Bowl Bike Park, take a left upon completing this trail, a short one minute pedal, CAREFULLY crossing HWY26. A Mt Hood Express Bus Stop is also located if your having a mechanical kinda day or hit Hurricane Racing for a tube or repair- you can catch the bus to return to Rhody at the very worst.
