One of the original south end trails. Fast and flowy it has some good rock faces to climb or roll over. Due to logging the north end of the original trail is no longer there, but Secret Ninja and Humble Ninja have been built to replace it.

This trail is unsanctioned.

 Trail is running great. Someone cleared up the broom and small trees that were crowding in on the trail.

      Lost car keys that are obscenely expensive to replace potentially on this trail. Please message me if found!
