    Drop, Jump, Rock Face

A fun technical, but not fast trail section.
All features have go-arounds.

Starts with a jump and a rock roller.
Into the woods with some large rocks, if you can find the right line, you can keep some speed. Good luck

Some small technical drops through the woods, and you end up at the base of a lift. Hop on the road to head back to the base area.
