This trail between Bayview Sequoia and Sunset Trail is a flowy downhill trail. For new or intermediate riders, it has features that are quite technical. Several of them come up fast without clean sight lines. Take it easy on your first ride.

The trail can be very fast when ridden to potential. It has some (side of the trail) kickers (all of which can be avoided), one relatively steep rock garden section. Stay to the far left if you want an easier route. Don't ride the right line through the rock garden unless you are a capable rider. This is the section that gives it a black diamond rating, and the evil sister moniker.

BTCEB built a reroute near the bottom that includes some tight turns (read switchbacks). If you visit Joaquin Miller Park this is a must ride trail.

It is rated Black due to relative difficulty to other JMP blue trails.
