This section really caught me off guard. I’m thinking Jem’s a green, then you see this and figure you got off route. It’s super cool , is a very aesthetic line, and adds some spice to the trail. Wish the trail had a couple more surprises like this! (I still loved Jem.)

This was my first introduction to the rock rising of this area so I was a tentative. I simply rode to the switchback, stopped to turn, and rode down the rest just fine.

I'm not a very great rider, and black trails usually give me a bit of trouble. This was just chunky and a little tight on the corners. Definitely blue.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
