Many hidden opportunities to clip pedals or wash out the front end. Very chunky, I would take my time and pick a line on this one regardless of your first time or 30th time. Also, riding up through Family Jewel and Pilsner does suck up a lot of energy, add a half helmet as your only protection, I would recommend taking your time. Anyone who can do this trail without a dab is a boss. An even bigger boss if you can ride up through Family Jewel and Pilsner in a full face helmet and body armor!

Old school trail that is a lot of fun 
It's quite long, with some techy parts including steep sections filled with rocks or roots.
A few places with small drops, a long slab toward the end.
I'm not an expert and I managed to do it, but be aware that it deserves the 2 diamonds

Probably the roughest trail at MSM. Not as fun as Boneshaker or Maibock, but still pretty cool and fast.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
