Fun and challenging trail that can be ridden either way. Lots of rocks and plenty of ups and downs.

      Another one of my favs. Take it clockwise, it is WAY more fun. Super fast descents with switchbacks, then a really fun, doable, technical climb out. Then pedal over to do Chunder Mountain and you’ll have yourself a ride.

      This trail is so pretty. It’s in the middle of a planted forest. You ride through perfect rows of 40-year-old Pinetrees. By the way it’s an awesome trail

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
