      Easy connector trail from GC / Javelina back to Adobe Jack. Definitely not black.
      brahhh brahhh
      This is a real fun climb to get back to Adobe Jack for a second DH run down Javelina, Grand Central, or P Plunge. A little bit of steep stuff, some tech, and just overall a real cool climb that doesn't wear you out.
