Two smaller trees down after the rock garden into a berm. A hand saw should be able to get them out of the way if someone packs one in!

      If you could bottle up the entire Cuyuna Trail System into one trail this would be it. Ok for cautious intermediates (watch the rollers) and a blast for advanced riders. Perfect length and easy climb too. Filled to the brim with natural features and a couple berms drops and jumps thrown in.

      Despite what Trailforks says, this is a one way trail.

      Rock rollers are these weird hybrid of rock gardens, sheer gap drops, and rock rollers. You come up to them super blind, often with way too much speed (signs would be nice). Definitely worth the black, maybe double black.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
