Solid edition to the Blackstrap trails. Once it’s all broken in it will be rad.

This trail is a blast! Descending through the forest feels great-very scenic, and the trail has some excellent corners. The small jumps are a nice touch as well! Very excited for when the climb loop is added!

Trail 2 and 1/2 Men
Epic trail-in my opinion the most fun trail in Saskatoon/Blackstrap area. Jumps, rock garden, roots and an exciting descent make this trail very fun. Perhaps the best way to describe the trail is raw; similar to many handcut mountain trails (specifically reminds me of the trails in Whitehorse, YT).

Great climbing trail. Hard to make climbing super fun, but this trail does that. All the climbing is gentle, and the areas with the "biggest" climbs are in the most scenic places. Travel through lush forest followed by grassland with enough twists, turns, and even a skinny log (optional) to keep things interesting. Great job building!

Super fun trail! Some quick jumps and corners - watch your head on the one jump. I would have done it again if the climb up the road wasn’t so gnarly. If this had a climb loop trail like 2 ½ Men it would be even better, but that has nothing to do with the trail itself.
