Eastern portion of this trail (heading North from Aspen Alley) serves as a return to Super Vu and a way to session the berm section of Aspen Alley. During wet times expect this to carry water and be wet in many areas. Heading West from the Super Vu intersection is extremely rutted and braided. This section of trail is scheduled to be treated and/or rerouted in the near future to eliminate the erosion and braiding that gets worse every year.
