Really beautiful view of the river up top. It was challenging and fun. Can't wait to do it again the next time I visit.

Just an awesome trail. There are some loose and washed out parts but they just add to the fun. Challenging and gnarley, while also being flowery and fun.
This is the best trail in the system for my money.

This is a very enjoyable downhill run. You can keep really good speed the whole way down and plenty of tech sections.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
