Big props to whoever finished this up, I think it needs a bit of work and I would love to help but it is rad to have a raw, steep chute style trail on this aide of the valley. So stoked on this!
Bikepack
A fun trail for those that like to get their tires off the ground. Wood drops, rock drops, gap jumps, rock slabs, and steeps. Loose when dry (read, often loose) so adjust your speed accordingly. Note, the Coal chute needs some speed and then the rider needs to lean into the berm in order to have enough speed to clear the step up. Don't walk around or push back up the Coal chute, push up the road if you want a redo on the step up.

Cool new trail with great views, some fun little drops/jumps, and a couple of short slabs.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
