TTFs on TrailBerm, Rock Face
The late Daisy was a cross between a Jack Russell and a raccoon, hence the name "jackoon". She clawed this line in with her talons and dug deep so you would have it all, a climb, a descent and an aggressive trail you have to work on to make flow. Her ashes live on, hopefully in peace up there, knowing that her ambition far outweighed her talent....much like the builders.
Downhill only, no uphill riding.
This trail is unsanctioned.

Four distinct zones, very pedalable with a few very hard climbs. Some ripper downs. Well built, modern...

Very slippery on the rocks right now, I’m running Minnion DHR II’s and they definitely aren’t soft enough compound for the wet rocks

I like this trail. Starts with a tough climb then steep with some tightish corners and nice benched sections. Feels like mountain biking!
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
