Short steep trail, and hey you get to ride through a giant devil cut-out so it's worth doing once at least. Shoots you right into World Cup which is all downhill as well.

      Devil cutout is back! Pretty steep; less fun than getting back onto Time Killer for me.

      Really fun and really steep. For all the climbing you have to do on this mountain it is definitely a relief to ride this trail. Fairly short but I definitely recommend it. The devil cutout is gone though I was really looking forward to riding through that

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
