This is a short trail that serves mainly as a connector between the other cross country trails in the Pass Powderkeg network, and the Berma-Grin Flow Trail.
Pass Powderkeg was the site for the 2009 S. Alberta Summer Games cross-country and Alberta Cup downhill mountain biking events. Since then 12 km of singletrack trail have been added including the Berma-Grin flow trail in 2014.

Access Info

Trailhead: Vehicle parking is available by the Skills Park/Albert Stella Arena located at the bottom of the Pass Powderkeg ski hill. This trail can be reached via the other trails in the riding area.
