This is a fun downhill trail that connects the Upper Ledges/Red trail to the Evergreen section of the Forest City Trail. The trail is mostly hardpack and includes a rockier section up top and a couple of natural bermed corners that allow you to carry a decent amount of speed. This trail can be fun for intermediate riders pushing their limits on speed while still rideable for those with less experience.
