A new downhill trail on Morrisey. Raw, techy, and a ton of fun. Plenty of rocks and roots throughout, with some steep chutes on the bottom half.

The trail is an easier black for the top two sections, then gets steeper and spicier after it crosses the road for the second time. You can bail out at this point if needed by turning right and pedaling up the road to Calypso Groove.

The trail was named for the fiercest creature to ever stalk the woods of Mt. Morrisey, the infamous 'El Diablo'. Funding for this trail was provided by the BC Community Economic Recovery Infrastructure Program and Tourism Sun Peaks.

Access Info

Trail starts near the outhouses at the top of the Morrisey chairlift.
