Loose and steep with rock gardens and a couple of good jumps and berms.
Trail starts from the top of the Skyridge lift. Look for a sandy drop in just left (northwest) of the unloading terminal.

Fun!! In my opinion, the upper half of skyline before it merges into Shark Bait was less fun than shark bait, because it's rough and techy with less tech flow and jumps than shark bait.

Fun but definitely not a double black. Maybe 2 sections could be considered expert and all tech is rollable but one. Great trail though!
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
