At two miles, not only is this the longest sustained downhill on the mountain, but it’s also packed with off-camber rock gardens, challenging doubles and plenty of steep and twisty bits. You’ll also have to keep your eyes peeled for a massive hip jump that likes to blend into its surroundings.

Just rode this and was quite disappointed... The trail I'm sure was great when it was first built but right now it has loads of water damage in the sections which would be fun (hip jump / steep berms). Trees down over trail in places and a few uphill parts which drag on. Terrain is loose gravel and some bedrock rock gardens.

Chunky is the best way to describe it. Fun trail but stay sharp and hold on. Requires some advanced skills if you are to ride every feature.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
