THE most technical trail in the Aldefer/3 Sisters network and for good reason. Test and build your technical skill with this short but steep up-and-over trail that runs through a notch below south Sister. Typically ridden West to East, the trail starts with large slabs and boulders to a series of ultra tight switchbacks choked with rocks. Only the most skilled and technically adept riders will clean these sections to the high point. \Rolling down the other side, drops, berms, ledges and more tight switchbacks will test the very best. No dabs and you are the King of the 3 Queens. Bring your "A" game to get'er clean.

      		 absolutely miserable slow speed tech. some rock moves could be fun if they weren't followed by sharp, boring switch backs that kill all speed.

      		 Super tough downhill very rocky and had to walk 95% of it. Some of the rock drops and pretty scary and could definitely get really hurt if not...

      		 Holy moly. Tough up and down. Super tech. Hiked all of the uphill. Some of the turns are tough and tight on the descent.
