Starts out sandy and smooth, then quickly turns into a embedded lava rock fest. Some tricky transitions and tight turns, then it opens back up for a fast and sandy descent. A couple gully crossings make things interesting, and some of the sandy straight-aways are very fast. Mostly easy except for the middle section.

       A great downhill run at horse ridge. Much more fun than Sand Canyon this time of year due to more trail variety and barely any braking bumps. Not really a black diamond in my mind, but probably more difficult than the blue runs in the area.

       This is a great trail up or down. The difficult section is relatively short but steep. A good chance to perfect picking your line.
