    Drop, Jump, Gap Jump

A one-way downhill. To access, shuttle the roads up to the drop-in or you can pedal up the surrounding logging roads to get in from the top. This is a fast flowing technical trail with some rhythm sections filled with jumps. Other areas have many tree roots and sections with natural terrain. Mostly winds along a ridgeline and finishes with some bench cuts. The lower sections get shuttled more often than the top.

      Cleared from Brice Creek up to the first crossing of FSR 2263 of any brush and windfall. The trail bed is in good shape. Several inches of snow above the first crossing of FSR 2263
