Pucker Up is a rowdy, technical jump trail that will push confident, advanced riders to new limits. Usually ridden starting at Wafer Rock below Widowmaker Hill as part of the Max Gnar route connecting Free Lunch and Moto. This fun romp flows downhill through the typical Lunch Loop chunk over gap jumps, drops, a rock wall ride, and a moderately terrifying last two features. The second to last feature drops through a notch between two large boulders and down a broken, scary looking rocky ramp that is filled with wheel catchers and favors speed. It's a 15+ foot feature and could have some serious consequences of things go sideways so scouting is highly recommended. The last feature rolls you down the face of a nearly vertical boulder. It actually rolls reasonably well, but is very mental rolling into it. Pucker Up exits into High Noon just before the start of Moto trail.
