The Expert Loop gets a bit more flowy in this section. The natural mounds create an almost constant up and down trail. There are never-ending log crossings. Many manmade jumps and obstacles paired with natural terrain will challenge any rider. Most climbing is a blue level but there are a few steep sections.
