This trail starts with a fun four-cross (4X) style single track providing a great introduction to dirt jumps and larger earth berms. The lower sections include grade appropriate dirt jumps and berms to maintain the fun
factor. Best ridden east to west, this track provides an extension to Plantation and Lumberjack Tracks while providing a more challenging riding experience.
