Downhill Flow Trail, that starts out from Eve's Gulch with some steep switchback climb. The main downhill trail is fast and flowing with big berms and high speed. Plenty of little air-out spots along the way down. A classic trail that has been in Sun Valley for years. Adopted by the Wood River Trails Coalition.
