This blue trail twists up the hill and is primarily used as a climbing trail to traverse to the middle of the park or for those exiting Flowy McFlowface to return to the Fire Road to make another run. As an alternative, you can climb part way up to access the top berm section of Flowy McFlowface via an unmarked connector.
