Features 3 jumps/drop, the first looking the scariest: it's a nice big stump that sends very well and smoothly. The exit has two paths available: a steep climb and a not-so-steep-but-still-steep climb to Bob's Run. Also features a nice steep downhill berm. Very similar to Big Dipper, but a big longer and slightly more difficult.

A fun remake of the original Buckhorn trail that was wiped out by logging.

Access Info

Can be hard to see from the road. Go towards the wood pile and you should see a vertical flat rock with a buckhorn (drawn and spelled) on it.
