A short but very fun stretch of flowy single track connecting Summit trail to Skid Marks.
Moonshine is the first down hill fork breaking off of Summit trail, look for it shortly after passing under the exit of Dead Dog. Depending on how rowdy you wish to begin your ride, can be linked by either Summit or Dead Dog from the summit launch pad.

Littered with natural rolls, whoops and playful jumps, let off the brakes and enjoy the ride as the trail descends through well spaced trees.

Ends in a short but steep climb/ hike a bike up to mount 7’s prominent ridge line, offering a great view before dropping into Skid Marks.

It’s noteworthy that while featuring approachable lower angle sections, the same can’t be said for Skid Marks which is both significantly steeper and more technical. At Moonshine’s end, Skid Marks is your only way out as there is no alternative exit.

      		 Trail status will be updated as they are assessed by the trail crew. Riding the trails before they are ready can result in long term damage. Thanks!
