This trial begins toward the end of Whites lane and through the shiprock boulders ending at Shiprock lane. This trail offers the most technical riding in the network. Starting with a downhill into sweeping turns you eventually get to a punch climb to the top of IPA mtn. Continuing down there is a steep drop into the "Ruffus" down section. Then climb back up through a rock garden couloir into a hard right punch up and into another drop finally releasing into a short fast downhill connecting with Shiprock lane.

      IPA Mountain is less of a trail and more of a weird micro-freeride maze loaded with cool features that are over too soon. This little network is largely a 2/5, but if you go here this is a must hit zone.

      Extremely difficult trail to follow when coming from White's Lane, much like the rest of this trail network. So much potential here.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
