Super sick downhill flow trail, and the main reason most people come ride here. Not marked as downhill only, but you would have to be insane to want to climb this. Starts in the woods on top of a hill, and then bursts out into a beautiful open meadow. Berms and jumps galore down the hillside. The open section ends as the trail goes back into the woods, and from there it's super nice loamy flow with some small well-built jumps all the way down to the access road. Very fun trail

Awesome loose conditions today. Corners and berms were great. Need to sweep out all the loose gravel but firing

Blowdown blocking trail at handlebar height-needs a chainsaw. Watch out, it comes up fast after the little gap jump/rollers in the woods.

      Short loop from Clough. Not a ton of climbing and does Dude the wrong way. Maybe not fun, but will find out!

      Many of the berms could use a bit more support, mainly the ones up top where there’s no tree cover so they dry out and are looser. Overall pretty good trail though.

      Awesome flow trail. NH needs more of this type of stuff

      Probably one of the best trails I have ever ridden. It's like a mini version of some of the freeride trails at Highland.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
