Land Owner
A downhill trail that's a solid black rating - it has plenty of drops, rock gardens, jumps, and other technical features. I would only recommend riding this with a hardtail if your bike handling skills are excellent, or it has 3 inch tires. Attempting to ride up this trail is not recommended - it will be primarily hike a bike for large portions, even for the strongest and most skilled riders.
Originally an unauthorized trail created by equestrians and later enhanced by mountain bikers, this trail was brought into the system in 2017 after modifications that minimized resource damage.
