Another North Shore classic filled with mandatory A-frames, skinnies, steep drops and granite TTFs. Brought back from the dead thanks to the NSMBA TAP program, the 5 year rebuild maintains the integrity of the original while bringing the trail experience into the modern era with jumps, rollers, doubles and even a rollercoaster. One of the more difficult Seymour trails due to its exposure, steepness and consequences.

      Cleared the fallen logs at entrance to lower Boogie. Entire trail clear after the atmospheric river and I'm pretty good shape.
