      No matter your skill level I would not recommend riding this alone for the first time and taking the left line just before you get to the road. Fractured my neck trying to take a tight corner at speed above a 10 foot ditch.

      A lot of work and features have been added very recently to this trail, even alternate lines. Be careful when you bomb down thinking you know the trail!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
