Is designed as an Adaptive Mountain Bike (aMTB) trail. The trail layout was completed in
accordance with the Kootenay Adaptive Sport Association Adaptive Trail Standards (2020) and features
a wider trail tread, mellow grades, and wide radius corners. This trail is separated into an upper and
lower trail, with the lower trail being the easiest trail in the entire network. The intent of this trail is to
provide a trail that any rider (aMTB, kids on run-bikes, MTB) can develop skills for other flow trails in the
network. The lower section may also be used an uphill as a lower-grade alternative to the existing paved
pathway which had a steep pitch at the bottom.
