Year Opened2023
Rebuilt in 2023. A mix of natural sections with catch berms and small rock drops (all rollable). Listed as a ◆ but really more of a intermediate trail. Nothing too crazy, just a fun downhill track with minimal pedaling except for where it reconnects to the old original trail entrance about halfway down. The old trail has been shortened is now mostly raw natural sections cutting out the old climbs.
