Slightly downhill X/C trail; flowy with some roots and rocks. This trail, along with nearby Gun Range and Bandwagon, has more in common with Tokul West than the rest of Tokul East. There are a few optional jumps on the trail. The trail leads into Gun Range across the road (Gun Range is closed near the bottom with no exit - be aware before descending and walking back out). Or, if you continue to the left at the end, you can ride Bandwagon.

Access Info

Note: a Hancock Forest Recreation Pass (see website below) is required to ride the Tokul East and Tokul West trails.

Follow the upper access road past Flowtron about a quarter of a mile, just before the road goes into the trees the trail is on the right. To return back to this upper road from the bottom of these trails, follow the lower road up until it narrows to a trail and rejoins the beginning of Safety First.
