    Berm

Fast, flowy, bermed DH only trail. A downhill riot. Upper section rehabbed in 2026.

Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Blue Rating: Intermediate features and steeper terrain.

Awesome trail for any adaptive bike. For the most part, it’s a flowy and smooth downhill only trail with berms and fun features.

Width is between 30 and 42 inches wide. 98% on camber. Minimal technical moves. Very little exposure. The rehab of the upper section in 2026 eliminated several off-camber sections and tight turns and improved the drainages in the berms.

Lower section tread gets more narrow but the bench is always there.
