Boat Launch respectively earned its name both by location and by its features. This short connector includes a fast jump/drop up top that shoots you back across the trail and into a short, fast and steep roll in. Then through a tight berm-fed chicane / kicker sending you down into the last huck, up and out back onto the trail (crossing). If done right there's enough speed left to carry into a nice little roller coaster ride before the trail ends. All of this in less than 1000 ft of trail and 100 ft of elevation!

Access Info

After Arboretum and heading up the North Run Trail, Boat Launch branches off and begins to descend shortly thereafter.

 fun all-mountain connector with a speedy bypass offering a few airtime treats. the rocky ascent needs reworked.
