Inicio con peraltes y saltos dobles, luego unos saltos mas pequeños y juguetones. Cruzamos una pista por la que van peatones y comienza la segunda parte, sendero con resaltes, minisaltos naturales, alguna curva y final en una carretera asfaltada. La bajada es disfrutona, si te pilla cerca esto es lo que hay. Enjoy it!!!

      La primera parte en estos momentos es pistón, la segunda parte está en buenas condiciones. Lo recomendable es hacer “Curvas” y luego “Potongo Inferior”.

      Sobre el árbol caído ya está solucionado. Hay un hombre tallándolo y haciendo una historia muy chula.
