Intermediate 30% and advanced 70%, .8 mile MTB trail which is a one directional singletrack that is a fast technical mostly downhill trail. Some spots have short 18” drop sections that increase the fun factor. The trail tread is very rocky, so leg armor is highly recommended. The trail is a good connector for several other fun rides.

      This trail is in good shape. Some loose dirt but thats no problem. Would recommend this trail. I agree with everyone else, this trails doesn't deserve the rating of black diamond. I would consider it a blue trail.

      Over so quick but oh so worth it! 90 seconds of full on tech flow.

      Definitely an easy black. Maybe hard intermediate.
