This two-way blue trail has a little bit of everything from technical hand built to rolling contour descents. Use New Bones as a climb back up from the bottom of the two black trails: Bam-Ba-Lam or Old Bones. Or make this your descent and climb back up Copperhead Road for an easier uphill. Be aware of two-way traffic. Enjoy a longer hand-built descent by jumping onto Old Bones, a technical black trail that will take you to the bottom as well.

Access Info

Access New Bones from the clear cut at Copperhead Road and just passed Bam-Ba-Lam.
