This loop descends down through the open Balsam forest - some tech rock jank, a cool rock drop into a gully, and a few jumps. Return climb loops back through open meadows and swamp edges, finishes at cut block edge with great views of Mt Baldur and Sol Mountain. Good poor weather riding option to make a longer loop with Sassy Toe and Park n' Ride.
