This is an easier jump trail with some mellow jumps early on and then some bugs get ones toward the end. No gaps or big commits until the very last jump as you are getting closer to the end of LM. This last jump can be ridden around

      Fun jump trail marked as a blue by the trail builders and voted as a blue by the riders on here. Not sure why it shows up as a black diamond. You can pretty easily bypass all the advanced level jumps, which I do because I’m a noob.

      Super fun jump trail, after the optional drop there is a step up. Tap your brakes into it to not land flat.

      Easier jump trail than TNT. Lots of mellow jumps.
