Hawk Eye is what we call the ‘light at the end of the tunnel’, guiding riders up the final stretch to the top of the Moose Haven Sector. This green trail is a mellow singletrack that leads to a gazebo with panoramic views of Burke Mountain and the surrounding landscape.

      Easy rolling to the top of Black Bear after a killer cardio climb on the Haul Rd, and the gazebo - views at the top are awesome!

      Climbing trail to the top of the Black Bear Extension. Nice gazebo at the top in the field!
