Route starts on the north side of Weldon Rd at the main parking lot on the green trail.

There is 3 miles of ease to moderate terrain before you make a left onto the 1st technical trail called Black Magic (unblazed) that is .75 miles long. When finished you travel .25 mile then make a right onto the next technical trail called TigerBlood (unblazed) that is 1.75 miles long. Both these trails are narrow, rocky and twisty.

I rate these 2 trails more difficult than the Ghost trail (blue) on the Mahlon Dickerson side of the park. I can ride the Ghost trail but these trails have me off the bike 60% of the time. You decide how they should be rated?

Last .5 miles end on a steep descent.

Portable restroom located in lot at start.
