      Its a flowy green, zero tech and no jumps. Fun if you want to go fast and braking into berms. This is a beautiful area with great potential, we need tech here.

      Great trail. Not sure where Rapp and Wikid got their information from but there are zero jumps on the trail. Couple of sharp hair pins but otherwise beginner friendly.

      I kind of wish this was DH only. Was fun.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
