Airstrip is a trail off the actual airstrip and heads into the woods. Multiple switchbacks take you down the side of the ridge at a fast pace until you reach the bottom.

      All downhill and fast and easy even for an old guy like me. Definitely a blue that most could handle.

      Thanks to those who did some recent erosion control on this trail. Rides great, even uphill. View at the end of the airstrip is breathtaking.

      Really fun DH. Has some really spots. Reasonover to Airstrip to Mine Mtn is a great loop.

      Some chunky, loose spots, serious roots. Other than that...Airstrip is a “first class” downhill experience.
