This is a very steep trail with a very old school build style. It's raw, technical with not much more than a rake and ride mentality straight down. Large rocks block some of the natural "flow" and you will find your self dragging your way down. Over time this could be come a great trail. It needs some kinks worked out but its very new so as it gets ridden in it will develop.

 Needs some love. They haven’t touched it yet this year. I cleared some branches and other stuff but it’s still pretty rough.

      Barely even a trail. Needs LOTS of work.
