Classic technical trail that goes both directions. Typically ridden from south to north for flow. BB South features technical climbs and descents, rock rollers, a single drop, and other technical rock features. Like many of the trails in the Whipple system, you'll get sweeping views of the Sawatch Range from this trail.
