You can ride the "lollipop" turn around in either direction, with small variations that you can explore.

Descending counter clockwise at "the helmet" (white helmet propped up on pile of rocks) provides a steep technical rock-face with three 2-3 foot roll-drop options. Fun and fast swooping turns on undulating rock and dirt.

Clockwise has one drop option (sort of), but really it's a steep roll.

Counter clockwise feels more "descendy", and clockwise feels more "climby".

Beautiful view from lookout point half way through loop.

      Rode it today after helping with some trip build and was fun. Unfortunately my Trail Forks somehow lost the recording of my ride. ????
