A fast downhill, with a number of optional rock jumps, rolls, and drops. Expansion of the ski trail network led to this trail falling out of use, but it is still completely clear and rideable, with rock features intact. Increased use would help keep the tread defined and prevent it being reclaimed by nature.

      Not so much. I don't shy from black tech, but couldn't find rhythm on this one. Loads of loose and harsh stones. You gotta ask yourself how much do you love your rims...

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
