Danimal is a downhill-only jump trail on the south side of Brockway Mountain. It features large jumps and tables suitable for advanced-level riders. The jumps can be rolled but decent speed must be maintained throughout to get up and over the jumps. Two drops are present here: one at the outset that serves as a filter feature, and a second that takes riders over the trail Woopidy Woo - West. All features on Danimal are wide in case your landing goes astray.

      Pure bliss. Every jump is massive and super lippy, it’s got huge berms, beautiful views, and merges into garden brook, another amazing trail. No complaints

      One of the best trails in Copper Harbor - great, moderately-sized tables and hips with some deep berms. Just wish it was longer!

      Amazing trail- for the midwesterners out there, similar in size and difficulty to Hobbs Hollow in Brown County (IN). Mostly tabletops and berms with a few good sized drops. Downhill only, so let it rip.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
