Curvy ribbon of sweet single track goodness flowing across University Hill. Optional jumps and drops sculpted into the natural terrain with a small gap jump off of Token Rock - look before you leap The party can get rowdy when wet but dries quickly after a storm. The upper portion of Pit Party traverses a moderate slope before sending you into the drainage zone where the real party starts. Furry friends along for the ride? Stop at the log ride to give your four legged companions a quick cool off in the dog pool before dropping back in for the final mad dash down the throat of the gully. Everyone loves a good hand job, enjoy.

This trail is unsanctioned.

      Rad little trail. Careful of walkers, as I encountered multiple groups, always at awful spots.
