Great old school downhill trail with berms and bridges to make for a fast run. The usual rooty sections but pretty flowy.

Access Info

Trail begins under the powerlines about 1.5km NW from where the main access road intersects the powerlines. Look for a small cairn of rocks. Leads into the 'Outback' trail or right onto double track back to Coquihalla.
