This is Terrace's first sanctioned green trail. This loop weaves through a moss-covered second-growth hemlock forest. Easy climbs and thrilling descents with optional side hits along the way. Easy enough for the novice rider to get their feet wet, but built to keep even the most advanced riders grinning from ear to ear.

This trail T's into the exit of Shangri-La and connects to LaLa Valley trail. Keep an eye out for horseback riders on LaLa.
