At the Lenord’s Loop/ Flying Squirrel intersection, choose the upper option for the best downhill. Flying Squirrel loops back to the intersection, regardless of which direction you choose. For a quick steep exit, you can drop down the Gravel Grind trail, about .25 mile from the main intersection. We recommend finishing on Lenord’s Loop, though.

      		Except Amenta's (1/2-groomed), trails all groomed 2-3X in last 24 hours. Hard to say how rideable until they set up.
