Sidecut Trail has been multiple times in passed Enduro races and riders will be quick to see why. This is an aptly named handbuilt side-cut bench with no switch backs. The second half of the trail is rougher and rockier while maintaining its side cut traversal pattern.
This trail is closed to uphill cycling and other uphill traffic is not recommended.
