The hardest loop on the mountain, Parking by the Gun Range, on Strawberry Creek road, this route is for those that like to "earn their turns" with over 600m Of Vert in just over 6km the climb is definitely going to get your heart and legs working. With beautiful view points and unique desert flora the climb is definitely a must do.
Once you get to the top turning down The Iconic "Tricky Bits" trail is going to take you down the oldest mountain bike trail on the mountain, with high speed sections steep rocks and wooden features it checks all the boxes when it come to excitement. Flowing directly into Skyfall, the undulating roller coaster of rocks gives you a brief reprieve and following its unique rhythm can either wind you, or let you collect your thoughts.
Punch bowl is a tech riders dream, with 90 degreen rock ledges, some features on this trail require trials like maneuvers to navigate them.
Once you've completed Upper Punch bowl, take the 2 track "Saj Mahal" to the entry way to Don't and the hardest Feature on Strawberry Creek, Featured on the Loam Rangers page, the squirrel catcher on don't was the only one on the mountain that they refused to try. With a quick hop down the rocks you're on the Slab "Skip it" and follow "Moving Target" back to the parking lot.
