Purpose built proper enduro/DH cut trail. Starts at the crest of the ridge, and drops down 3 steep pitches, which are more significant the lower you go. Really nice flow.

      These steep trails are loamy goodness - hero dirt all summer long without clouds of dust like in other parks. The entire network of trails offer blue and black tech.
