Excellent stretch of DH. Most riders shuttle from the hairpin up to Loafer Mountain Trail head on the Nebo Loop. Great way to end a long ride around Black Hawk. The trail is really not that difficult, in fact I would say it is mostly intermediate riding. There are just some sections of rooty drops and a rocky drop that can take a beginning rider by surprise. The roots are fun cause you can double them up, or even triple.

	Feb 17, 2019 @ 4:31pm Feb 17, 2019	Mountain caught fire recently and trail may be significantly damaged
	Jul 17, 2018 @ 10:58am Jul 17, 2018	Still really dry and dusty up through a lot of spots. Lots of really loose dirt coming into some of the tighter turns so be careful not to go off...
	Jun 27, 2018 @ 9:20pm Jun 27, 2018	Dry and Dusty today. They are running cattle up there right now and the cows have made the trail very soft and loose on 80% of the trail.
	Jun 10, 2018 @ 9:18pm Jun 10, 2018	Very dry for this time of year. Just a bit dusty. Trail is in good shape, but I passed about 2 dozen dirt bikes on the trail, so without some rain...

Fun Downhill ride. personally Don't feel that it is double black diamond difficulty, feels more like a single black. Mainly for the sudden dropoffs and a few rock sections. Not really any significant jumps but overall a very fun ride.

Rode this june 10th 2017. Very fun, very beautiful. There was no snow, but a couple of wet spots, nothing bad. Start from Blackhawk for a more full day of downhill riding.
