Fun flowy trail drops you down the north side. Also a fun climb up. Some tight turns, but mostly fast.

Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Blue Rating: Intermediate features and steeper terrain.

Recent trail work has made this a SUPER great adaptive trail. 36+ inches wide. Some occasional bush riding. Great berms. *****!
