Continuation of Upper Freeway but a little easier. Classified as downhill only, riders should be aware that occasionally Lower Freeway is used as a climb to access the upper trails. Moderately pitched, it has great flow with wide arcing corners & some good straight stretches to build speed. Riders be aware of the junction of Lower/Upper Freeway & Dirtbag as it is fairly steep coming down Upper Freeway.
Access Info
Is accessed from Upper Freeway or at the junction of Upper Freeway & Dirtbag, terminus is just before the main parking lot, comes out onto the ski trail by the caretakers house.
