A rapid-fire descent with smooth features and technical B-lines. The landings are manageable if intimidating, but take care towards the tail end, where lie a short but gnarly rock roll and a steep switchback with a boulder blocking the easy line.
A good trail for intermediate riders to test their mettle, while having the potential for some decent air and fun alternative lines to throw in the mix

Access Info

Trail begins at Deviation Hub which can be accessed by climbing Elegator or Crocodile from the trailhead. Alternatively, take the easy loop up C2 and down Deviation and roll straight in.
