      Super fun downhill with lots of drops and staircases. You can roll every drop, though the one right after the sharp right turn is the sketchiest. The jumps are not mandatory and have ride-arounds. Plenty of loose rock, esp near the top. Good trail for non-downhill heads, but inexperienced mountain bikers should avoid.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
