      Incredibly fun trail! Thanks for the great engineering and build! I don't normally ride rock gardens and especially black diamond ones, but this was quite difficult without lots of rocks.

      Fun little loop around a rocky hill. Not overly technical but with a bit of exposure the black rating seems warranted. We rode it both directions and preferred it clockwise, a little steeper climbing with uphill swtchbacks and a bit better flow downhill. That said, both directions were good.

      Great trail! Personally I would ride it counter clockwise next time. The NW side is slower as a DH in my opinion because it’s more twisty, exposed and full of huge derailleur basher rocks (most are on the immediate side of trail). I think I would enjoy weaving through all the NW rocks more as an uphill, but as a downhill it is fun to dodge them and get surprised by all the sharp cliff corners, just slower.

      No drops, minimal rocks in the trail, 100’s of rocks to dodge (that wouldn’t roll well).

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
