Final section of the standard Marshall descent. It's also a great option for new riders just starting to ride singletrack. The trail enters the woods twists through the trees on a descending traverse. It then drops through a series of quick switchbacks and then straight lines through a grassy field where a few easy pedal strokes return you to the base area.
