Great fun. Several slabs and different options up top, while the lower portion has been reworked with berms, jumps and optional drops. A step up in difficulty from Overnight Sensation, but well worth it. Check it out

Awesome trail. In a dry spell the dusty chute sections are the dustiest, chutiest things I've ever seen on a trail.

This trail was scouted and built by Jesse Murphy in 2009. His reason for building Rusty was that after shuttling Gravitron there was only Overnight Sensation to ride, which in his opinion, was Garbage.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
