911 is a fun, fast as you want to take it trail with a variety of features (all with ride arounds), jumps, rollers, and bermed corners. 911 starts out in new growth but quickly goes under the shade of well grown trees. This trail is downhill only and is accessed at Rd 2000.

The trail starts out with a miniature teeter-totter to help set the tone. The next feature you'll come across is a larger teeter totter followed by a skinny. As you enter the tree canopy, be sure to veer right on 911 or you will accidentally find yourself on Jack and the Beanstalk. Next you'll encounter a ladder over a rock before you'll see where Jack and the Beanstalk crosses 911 at the Lake Family Forest Preserve bench. Coming up is an old-school skinny (read about it here) and roller coaster. Just before Pony Express is a rock feature. Just after Pony Express, the trail appears to go straight (which will work out since it also ends on Rd 2200), however watch for the sharp left to get the bonus bit of 911 as it wraps up on Rd 2200.

      The first trail defended and what a good one! Optional lines but great jumps and tech if your down to partake

      kind of techy at the top with the teeter totter and the ladder bridge but after the optional gap it gets super fast with tiny doubles that are fun to take at a high speed

      This trail is wildly fun, like the skinnies and sweet jumps!
