More of a physical challenge than a technical one due to sustained steep, chundery sections. It’d make a great Enduro race course. Like others have said, this trail would be a black in most parts of the world.
I’d skip this one if your from Colorado (like me) or any place that’s got decent vertical drop. You’ve probably got a similar trail in your backyard already. Hit Turnstyles instead.

Lots of trees down. It's fine for hiking (although the snow isn't hard in a lot of places higher up so it's "challenging"), but there's going to be a solid amount of work required to clear the trail up in the Spring.

As others have said, this is on the darker end of blue trails, some tricky moves and lots of chunk

I agree with it being a BC blue, black everywhere else. Rode it today no trees, but it seems like it is getting badly eroded. Just makes it more techie.

I would agree, more black than blue. There are also about 8 trees on the trail. You have to stop and lift your bike over it. This was May 4. 2019
Not meant as a critic more a heads up for others.

Definitely more black than blue in my opinion. Very nice, especially in the wet pretty interesting.
