Sloppy Flow is aptly named with big berms, big smiles, and always a touch of mud (hey, we're working on it). This trail will take you to the back of the park which we like to call Mt. Vets...or as much of a mount as you can get round here. This is best way to access Fine Dining, 100 Proof, and Doodle Bob trails

Access Info

This trail starts at the rear entrance of Jetstream which can be accessed by parking in the lot at the top of the hill closest to the baseball fields. From there take the paved path towards the woods where you will see a kiosk and a Kan$a$ sign that will lead you to Sloppy Flow.
