TTFs on TrailBridge, Log Ride, Rock Garden, Skinny
Outer limits was originally built in 2006 for something a bit more steep and raw (both climb and descent). It received several updates by the Axeman in 2017 including a couple berms, drops/jumps, and several log skinnies to stay above a wet area. It begins off the Upper Creek trail, climbing gradually, then steeply with several swithcbacks
(this often called Switchback climb) until reaches the high point and the descent begins. It snakes down along the hillside with plenty of technical sections until it flattens and connects near the end the Upper Creek Trail.
