Trail runs up onto open ledge, and down a slack roller to a short trail that returns you back to the wide ledge area at the beginning of White Blaze Singletrack.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of partying that happens in this spot, and a ton of trash is usually present. Watch out for broken glass.

The ledge and roller are ideal for newer riders getting more comfortable with riding on rock.
