    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.

      Very different from other trails in the immediate vicinity. Really fun, seems like it was taken from high Star ranch.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
