This trail was predominately built with the help from the Green Apple Corps and is one of the longest trails in the park. It's the most difficult blue square trail bordering on black diamond for a few technical trail features, a small half pipe section and punchy climbs. The trail winds through lots of tulip trees and boulders that were dumped here when they built the Clearview Expressway.

Maybe a few thorns or small overhead vines need trim back. Climb after the "camp" could use a good trimming down
