Despite it's name, Burma Road is a singletrack trail. It was an originally a closed road that was converted to singletrack by the Youth Conservation Corp. The routing is old-school, with fast, straight down the grade descents, rocky and loose terrain and some burmed up jumps. It rides well in both directions but people love it for the fast, ripping descent.
