This is a fun trail that starts with a moderate climb to the top, where you then roll into a downhill roller coaster trail with lots of humps and jumps and large berms. Very fun

      Was really just going to ride on by but I thought I'd give it a shot. WOW!!! It's a pretty chill climb to some awesome views with a little flat riding on top...then boom, a super fun descent! Try to make sure to hit this...as it's easy to overlook if you're opting for Bright Side and not Boneyard...

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
