      Should be blue with some red sections, my suggestion. Really nice and flowy!! Thanks for that

      Mostly flowy with some technical sections of roots, steps, or steep parts. Best trail in the area — I loved it so much I rode it twice!

      Super sentier, les herbes cachent un peu le sentier et il faut bien garder les roues sur le sentier étroit.
      Clairement moins engagé que little BC qui est pourtant cotée rouge...

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
