A shuttle route that starts on the edge of the valley and descends all the way back to the river. An easy climb up Swell Hill will drop you at the top of Ridgie, a mildly techy trail that descends along a ridge and features sections with multiple options. As you reach the bottom be on the lookout for Maple Twist, it will be on your right, which descends to Tucker Hill Rd. Make a right up and then down Enchanted Forest, which is a rocket of a descent through a magical (enchanted) Eastern Boreal forest that proves doubletrack can still be fun! Enchanted rolls into Dana Hill Rd (doubletrack), which quickly leads to Busternut and Goodnight Irene right back to Madbush Falls. This flowy downhill includes tons of berms, a few optional drops and a couple of optional logs and rock features hiding on the edges. You’ll flow all the way down across the “Butcher Block” bridge to Butternut Hill Rd. A flat, relaxing 2 minute dirt road pedal past a farm and across the Mad River takes you to Rt 100. Cross Rt 100 and look to your right (Bundy Rd) where you catch the quick singletrack descent to Madbush Falls.
