Short loop off of the Swampy Trail, quite technical with a couple of fun drops. Can be ridden in both directions but would recommend north to south. Follows the ridge line above the swamp with a couple of nice view points.

Access Info

Can be accessed off of the Swampy Trail just as the swamp comes into view on the riders right from the north end or where the Swampy Trail crosses the swamp at the south end.

This trail is unsanctioned.
