Slabs and rock features mixed with berms and flow. Sendtaur starts in the trees with moderate difficulty slab feature. If you're able to ride this first feature you'll soon be having a good time. If you're not comfortable with this first feature, you're going to be walking a lot on this one. There are multiple line options on most of the slabs, be sure to stop and take a look on your first lap. Sendtaur ends with a mandatory 800ft climb to get back up to any of the other trails. There is no outlet to Dan Kelly or Olympic Discovery Trail. This trail was made possible by donations and support from Top Left Trails Co-Op. Trail design by Josh Carruthers and Zach Wheeler.

      Awesome. You have to commit to the slabs. Would be difficult to walk down

      None of the difficult parts (slabs) have ride-arounds, so heed the squirrel catcher, walking is not a good option. Upper half is the best, lower is decent, but not worth the climb out imo.

      Agreed it’s pretty Canadian. Nice work up here! Killing it
