Loamy, rooty tech trail which is a favourite of many. A mostly raw trail with some steeper sections that also features some super fun natural and man made doubles. After crossing the road the trail splits with the right line leading to the infamous "Black Moose" section and left leading to the easier but still challenging ride around. A must ride for advanced riders

      Crazy fun trail. Not for new bikers. Very steep and loose.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
