Beaver Moon has a little bit of everything from wide open bermed corners, spicy roots, rock gardens, a large gap jump with a ride around, and some really killer views. Look before you leap on the root drop that's about a third of the way down.

        The difficult stuff has ride-arounds, except the first feature. Similar difficulty to Sendtaur, and more easily readable the first time down. Rocktopus is more difficult and fun than the main ending, which doesn’t have anything notable.

        I'm a black diamond rider and gave this trail a shot today. 1st time down had to walk some of the big rock corners, think after another run would feel up for some of them though. Today conditions were great but trail was still very loose, making it harder to commit to trail speed. Overall would say is good trail, the hike out is definitely gonna drain you before you hit horse on the way down!

        This is very good, with the emphasis on very. Easy for a double black, most solid black riders would be fine. Don't let the first ten feet scare you off.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
