Land OwnerGreater Vancouver Regional Dictrict
What used to be a steep, trenched trail has been completely rerouted by Ol' Man Pete to create an intermediate trail easily accessed off the third switchback. Tight, twisty turns flow at you one after the other. Optional wood roll downs and even a log ride at the end offers a little extra to the advanced rider. So many turns it'll make you dizzy
Access Info
Accessed from the 3rd switchback on Mountain Hwy or Crinkum Crankum. It ends at the cedar Trail.

Loving the new berms that wered added near the top! Replaces what was previously a slightly tricky RH corner.
DerekDuster
Running really nice right now. Lots of tight downhill corners, good for an intermediate. Rode it on a 29er hardtail and it was lots of fun.

Good trace! Not too difficult and really fun!
