The most fun section of the mountain. All the trails on this part of the mountain are techy/chunky/steep enough to be challenging and fun but they have catch berms and such in all the right places so you can carry a ton of speed. Tons of different lines to choose from too. This is what keeps me coming back to blue mountain.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
