Rough & R'Eddy is a technical XC trail with rolling terrain and amazing views including several spots where you can see King Eddy Lake. It is a bit rough because of all the rock, small and big, and is rated “black diamond” because of it’s challenging climbs, not because of it’s technical descents. It's like My Crowning Achievement, but more difficult. At the end of the trail, you can connect to My Crowning Achievement for the long descent at the end of MCA (over 1.25km), just follow the signs.

      2 of the 3 are not far off and won't need much, the other one will take a bit more but easily doable. Maybe shoot me a pm and I can come give you a hand, should be easy for two in part of a day. Thought everything else was fine for a black so not sure what else you had in mind ?!..

      Rough but not quite R’Eddy, will certainly be better next year after some rain and a snow pack settles thing down. I know I'm a little right turn challenged but seriously Randy, what is with those 3 rights... geez, they are ridiculously tight, ultra tough for modern long wheelbase unless you’ve got mad trials skills. Other than those 3 rights I love it Wink
