TTFs on TrailRock Face
This trail is not for everyone, the uphill is a lung buster and the down hill is very technical but fun.
This is a Black Diamond going up and one spot is Double Black Diamond coming down.
It has awesome panoramic views of the Valley Floor.
This trail is called Hoo Doo and you will see why toward the end of the trail.
If you are not a true expert rider DO NOT RIDE THIS TRAIL,
This trail has a lot of solid rock off camber with exposure.
Coming later this summer will be a separate downhill called The Gorge.
The trail start is off Lost Goldmine about a 1.3 miles from the Cloudview parking lot, it is only marked with a Cairn at the top of the down hill to Cougar.

Great job to whoever built Hoo Doo and Cojones. Tons of rock, tons of dabs, and tons of fun. Must like off camber rock and have good brake control! And I still walked quite a few sections

This trail is absolute gnar, can be easy to get lost at times even with the spray painted dot path, be ready for some steep open rock skirt action

One of my favorite trails here in AZ. So much fun/scary. Can't wait to do it again.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
