I can't believe my trail made it on Trail Forks. I am the Goon. Only my friends know who I am. I've also had a big impacted on alot of these trails. The Bicycle Company built these trails! Not all of them, but most. Robert Newman built the best ones, like Sotol and Newman's pass.

A multi-directional XC trail. Easy, basically featureless. If you are in it for the cardio ride south to north. If you want a little quicker decent, ride north to south.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
