Fast, fun descent with a mixture of bench-cut singletrack with typical Oakridge switchbacks at the top and a quick out-and-back to a view plateau atop Youngs Rock. After passing through some rocks and scree on the backside of another outcropping, you will transition onto a ridge before taking a wide open fast descent through rough trail in a burned section of the forest.

Upper half is riding great, nice & loamy. Lower half is already pretty dusty. Nothing too bad though. Trail rips.

      A great trail in a remote area. If you love backcountry single track, this is it. Lots of lizards out on a summer day too.

      Lot of bushwhacking, seemed seldom ridden and not maintained otherwise. Not worth the effort for shuttle and would entail long climb from road if not shuttling.

      Your experience will depend a lot on your equipment- really good brakes are essential and good suspension at well as there are sustained rough steep decent that will tax your grip. I wouldn't call it black diamond from a technical standpoint, but deff from a fatigue one.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
