If you want to check out what the pros are hitting this is a cool trail. The top has a massive jump line but easy around routes are available for all features (definitely a look before you leap situation). It then turns into rocky downhill with a few slabs before merging back onto lower Nooner.

      Looks like it hasn't been ridden much lately. Needs some TLC.
      The big woodwork is super sketchy and the ride out of the big slab needs help.
      Not sure if there was a sign at the trail head before but there isn't now.

      The trail is very overgrown in the top section but once you get to the lower part of the trail it is a blast! ????????

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
