A more cross country oriented trail that starts from the upper lot. Fun ridden both ways or as a quick out and back. Has some great technical climbs and some fast descents mixed in. Has an old school feel but still quite fun.

Access Info

Access from upper lot, or by going down the access road.

      The clearcut has opened up some nice scenery. Not as squatchy now.

      This trail has some technical climbing spots on the way back to parking lot. I had to walk over those gnarly roots but got me to slow down a bit & enjoy the forest. Trail is actually very beautiful. Last bit of downhill is pretty fun

      Fun cross country trail and I don’t really like cross country. Good test of your technical climbing ability. Being able to ride this all the way through, without getting off your bike at all, takes a considerable amount of skill

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
