Land Owner
Also known as the magic carpet ride this in the down direction is a fun fast flowing trail that end with a short fast drop down the "yellow brick rd" (a rock armoured section) just before Laurel Run Rd. This is a great beginner through experienced individual trail that is a great end to any ride. Going up you will lose a lung climbing the "yellow brick rd" but then it is a gradual warm. The section before/after the intersection with Kettle Trail is definitely more challenging and is black diamond
Access Info
Off Laurel Run Rd of from Kettle trail or North Meadows Rd

Fun! Probably the smoothest and fastest trail in Rothrock
coreydickman
Consider alternate routes during thaw conditions in spring. This trail is heavily used by drains poorly in the flat spots.
coreydickman
Open again. This trail closes for a week or 2 during freeze-thaw condition. Some sections are flat and have poor drainage, but is heavily used by beginners and most users to return to Galbraith lot.
