Take a left under the bridge after the huge berm on Green.
This gets a little more rough than the Green trail with more roots and harder climbs. Still rides like an easy Blue though.
Super fun and would be great for most ability levels.

This trail is really gnarly. Lots of flow in the first half, and it seems well maintained,
