Fast and loose. Bottom exit is pretty blown out, so watch your speed.

      Is this the old norba race track? Or is that lost to
      Time?

      The rock and wood roll are worthy of a double d but the trail is a little lacking for its length.

      This is the most fun trail on the mt for sure. It's steep and techy and fantastic. There's not much else like it on this hill. The other black trails should be rated blue, they are smooth and basically featureless, worthwhile mostly just for their beautiful scenery. But not much in the way of thrills. But this trail holds its own, no doubt. Lots of fun if you like picking your way down steep & sketchy tech.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
