Amazingly fast This trail defines the area perfectly! Small jumps, tight turns and switchbacks! Very sharp turn with no indication! Watch your brakes! Some parts might be too technical for some riders and require to walk down. Please do not overestimate your skills in this trail, there are very sharp rocks. Watch out for hikers. Respect the trail, and the local forestry will keep on allowing dh in the area.
