Trail that starts with some flowy curves, berms, and jumps, then transitions to a steeper downhill section. A few fun features with ladder drops/jumps. Ends and merges with the trail after sloppy seconds. Trail difficulty is somewhere between blue square and black diamond, but there are ride arounds for just about all features.

      Fun. Definitely on the upper side of the blue trails for sure. There are only a few larger features on the trail, but there are a lot of little rollable bumps that are made to be jumped off of at the top. There is one really nice well maintained drop at the very bottom where the trail ties into Sloppy Seconds. Small but fun.

      Really nice. The features add some spice to the trail, and all but one are doable for the average rider.
