      Road this trail on 6/27/2023. Conditions were ideal a couple days after the first measurable rain in over a month. Well packed. Good flow.

      Dirt candy is a wide, flowy trail with optional lines that involve steeper terrain and jumps. Take the chicken lines and you can still fly down some fast, bermed flowy singletrack. Def better to ride this trail the opposite way trail forks shows. Easily sessionable by either turning around and riding the singletrack back up or by riding gravel to the top on timber trail road. This trail really is some dirt candy!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
