        Short and sweet, trail is running great right now. Thank you to the trail sages who maintain this trail

        Technical rock gardens and jumps. Great trail!
        PiperSadler
        Top 2/3rds is a fun ripper, nothing technical at all. Bottom 1/3 becomes bush wacky while riding a river bed and completely overgrown in spots.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
