A trail that is amazing but sees little traffic. Maybe it is because it is on the western edge of the Ring Creek zone, can be accessed from the Skookum or the Short Circuit Connector from Meadow of the Grizzly
Most people combine it with Fred, and Word of Mouth for a nice long technical Xc ride.

It’s a great trail, but needs tons of TLC as it is showing wear and tear.
