It's a pretty area, there are some fun rocks. There should be many more jumps worked into the flow, these trails are kind of boring. Overall this network is mellow and not very techy compared to the mountain riding. Very overgrown and dry as of June 1 2024. Maybe this area is best ridden in the winter and early spring.

Sucks that they got rid of the wooden drops but the trail is still sick as always!
Jeffyo
Removed wood features but was a lot of fun still.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
