Great fun trail. Awesome drops. Fun and fast. Epic way to start out. Some may need a warmup if you are newer. Link Boy scout to Westleg to Mother Connect to POW to have a super sick and challenging descent. Watch out for the off camber turn on Mother. Nasty way to crash.
SlideReady
Great warmup lap before hitting something more difficult. Flowy and chunky. The climb out is barely a climb and more of a flowy traverse.
gafoto
Great start with fast chunk but finishes with an uphill to the first parking area. Barely worth it.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
