Trail Mother Lode (Upper)
Some pretty loose tight switchbacks, but nothing too technical

Trail True Grit (Lower)
This should be a one way downhill. Climb up Sundance road, then rip down True Grit. Rock features are fun, this trail is built for speed.

Trail Hawk's Peak (Upper)
Ascend this trail and descend Mother Lode. Loose and rocky climb but worth it.

Trail Hawk's Peak (Upper)
Technical and steep (but short) climb up to the peak. Worth the views when you get to the top!
