Land OwnerRegion of Halton
Built and named after the Offspring song Hammerhead, playing on an AF rides iPod at the time this trail was built off the back of the quarry trail as a one way connector down the zones rock ledges to eventually join up to the main trail and turkey trails.
Lyrics on his mind at time:
“Through this doorway
What’s on the other side
Never knowing
Exactly what I’ll find”
Heavily modified and upgraded over the years Hammerhead has multiple skinnies, rock up and overs, a jump and would be rated difficult by most.
Noobs will probably know this one as Oil Drum since there is an oil drum on it.

Great trail with some tough but fun features. I would ride this one way. From BC to Flow trail connector South to Broader trail. This direction would be so much more fun.
