This is a really pleasant climb up to Chinquapin/Nighthawk from the Shoalwater TH. much better than the road in every way.

Very fun up top, some of the most fun I've had on a blue, just wish it continued longer! Kudos to the trail designers/builders! The rock features really come alive with a little speed. Stopped by on a road trip so only had time for this trail but I'm impressed by the work that went into getting the berms right and the techie bits, I'm definitely coming back to ride the rest of the trails.

Great mix of mostly flowy, smooth downhill sections with a few scattered spots of semi-technical rock sections. Really fun trail with nothing pushing the limits of a blue rated trail IMO. Nothing too steep or overly technical but still fun. Awesome forest riding and spectacular views. Everything in the area was really well-marked.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
