Land OwnerOtonabee Region CA
Screaming Trees is a fast and flowing descent with some bermed corner and some features to get the tires off the ground. It's sacrilegious to ride Harold Town and not include one run down Screaming Trees on your lap.
Trail is named for the sound of the cedars when the wind blows.
Updated track in august 2019
