      Budd is a pretty good trail with great views. I’d say it’s close to a blue-black. I rode it reverse from the recommended TForks direction and was not sorry for that—but it’s not a smooth go in either direction. I did this to finish off a lower lower, upper lower (or is it upper upper?) all in the opposite direction recommended and again this seems to me the better direction.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
