This is a brand new climbing trail -under construction- that connects the Chief Will Yum network with the Fox Mountain Trail network. While primarily an uptrack, it is a fun, fast and flowy downhill trail. Can be accessed via shuttle from the campsite for downhill.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION - Ready To Ride but still some construction and tweaking in progress
