This trail starts as the left option at the first intersection on the Main Loop after the initial downhill. The trail starts as a gentle climb up to the intersection with Thunder Road where Old Blue continues as the right option. After 0.1 mile through a small clearing, Old Blue reunites with Thunder Road and continues to the right and starts the downhill portion of the trail. Two rock features and some tight technical trees await on the downhill section that connects back with the Main Loop.
