        Updating my thoughts after seeing Brian’s (BKXC) video: looks like early season the flow trails are pretty buffed out with fresh tampered dirt. My comments were from a late season visit, which was a very different experience.

        One of the best bike park runs I’ve ever hit! In great shape right now. Upper section is so amazing, then once the trails merge it turns into completely uninspired “meh”, garbage. But the beginning is so good I’m still rating five stars.

        Gravity logic killed it with the upper section. Classic GL berms, rollers, and flow. Unfortunately, the trail appears to have not seen any maintenance since it was built. Brake bumps, washout, blowdown, and chunder. I actually had blurry vision riding the smooth flow in Oct 2020 it was so rough. All the green and blue trails were this way. The black trails were in much better shape. Hopefully Bryce gets some love to the dirt more consistently.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
