Another old school, classic, Taylor Fork ride; although the dirt bikes have really torn it up lately. A rough, rocky descent lacking much flow. Tons of loose rock.

This trail gets worse every year, the dirt bikers are relegated to just this one so it gets pretty torn up. Not much flow. Seems like someone (the dirt bikers) should build a long bridge through that muddy section.

Comment above is referring to Minnie Wapiti in Beaver Creek

We 'rode' the first half mile of this trail from Beaver Creek. It is decidedly not a blue square. Perhaps would go so far as to say that it is a double black, at least for that distance. The trail certainly may improve beyond that point, but to call it a blue is terribly misleading. If you are looking for a techinical, rugged downhill, this is a great option.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
