This is an awesome downhill trail. Really fast and flowy at the top. Some gap jumps made from logs will come up on you fast. Trail starts to get really rocky once you hit the ridge. Then the ridge starts to gown down steep and can be loose. Lots of jumps near the bottom. Amazing DH trail Not beginner or intermediate friendly.

      What a great trail. If you’re coming from sea-level, the ~900ft of climbing to the trailhead is pretty mellow, so don’t let it dissuade you. First third is fast windy singletrack through an alpine meadow overlooking Jackson. Second third is rough rock and root tech and it’s unrelenting. Bottom third is dirty bermy jumps. I wouldn’t rate this as double black unless you’re hitting all the big kickers and doubles at the bottom, it’s generally an approachable trail with plenty of ride-arounds.

      Absolutely sick trail and such a nice refresher from the countless mundane blue flow trails that all anyone ever builds anymore. I think this is very much deservedly a double black. It starts off chill enough but after the short hike a bike the middle section down the ridge gets rowdy! Steep, loose, tech jank. The final bottom section gets flowier with plenty of well built small to large features. All optional. Trail has it all, buckets o fun.

      Rowdy fun. As a non-shuttle bro without a full face, I can say there's only one section (a climb) that I cant always make so maybe a single black diamond would suffice. Don't bring your kids here though
