      No jumps, but fun and mellow for a regular trail. Good way to get to Deadwood.

      Biked this entire trail, and every trail leading off of it, as well as pulled my bike through the woods in the space between to try and find evidence of the jumps these pictures. All I found was a moderately floppy trail with no features, so these features have been destroyed or never existed.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
