Accessed from Wyatt Mountain Road, take a left on the double track Brokenback Mountain Summit Trail.. Note, this trail is private property - only ride to the left turn to start the Ridgeline Trail. Do not proceed passed this turn off. Ridgeline is classic old school singletrack - tight and twisty DH fun with a few steep switchbacks thrown in to keep you honest. You pick up speed and encounter more rocks as the trail progresses lower and then along the creek. Keep flowing passed the end of Ridgeline and back into the Blue Ridge School "proper" trail system to connect all the way down to the lower access road for an almost 3 mile downhill run.

      		 Hasn’t had much use, trees down on the connection to Brokenback and a few branches hanging over the trail. Otherwise good shape, just heavy leaf...

      		 Maybe the best condition it has ever been. One tree down on the cut through from Brokenback just after the Stage 2 start sign.
