This is a short loop you can easily do after work on a weekday. Park at the Skeggs Point Vista parking lot, ride north on the road about 200 feet to reach the trailhead. Counterclockwise offers a fast and flowy downhill to start with plenty of rolling jumps. Be aware of other trail users as you descend. Cross a couple of bridges at the bottom and single track back to the top with several technical sections and challenging climbs. Just stay left at the forks, get a little muddy, rinse and repeat.
