Very rocky, steep downhill trail with lots of well-made jumps and berms. Unless you are willing to ride back up the first half, be ready for some crazy tech.

      Serious gnarly chunk and STEEP. Used all my travel and glad my brakes were working well.

      Plz do not take this trail if you are not experienced...it's a very fun trail but it is incredibly steep and rocky with crazy jumps so be prepared
