One big sandstone slab that you ride across, little drops, lots of crevices and lips to maneuver.

      Super fun XC style route! Would call it a soft black, plenty of fun 1 ft drops and twists and turns. The red markings on the slick rock need a touch up coat tho, hard to see on the first half of the trail. People going off route accidentally could impact the plant life!

      This trail does have some flow you just got to work for it. Lots of fun.

      I rode this trail up and it was difficult. I am sure going down it’s fun as there are multiple 1-3 foot slickrock transitions.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
