TTFs on TrailRock Face
Another legendary trail built by Gary McFarlane, The trail is an easy black, with optional intermediate options (all signed with a chicken).
The trail offers so many different styles of riding - XC, rock slabs, downhill rips, and some interesting wood-work. Definitely one of the highlight trails of the 2013/14 building season.

It's so good, so much creativity ! To ride over and over again to get faster, and find new lines. And it's easy to lap ! Incredible

You can make this as black or as blue as you want. Incredible trail. Could probably ride this on repeat for a week and still find new lines.
