Good trail for a beginner looking to do their first technical trail. It does get wet and has a few embedded rocks. But overall it’s a great trail for beginners.

Take off the top and you should see it quite quickly off to the right. Quite difficult to miss

      Trail needs some TLC. An eroded chunk fest at this point.

      This trail has eroded to the point where it is now way closer to a black than a green - the description that is is "beginner" level is big time inaccurate - I took 2 solid intermediates down this trail, and they struggled. Lots of loose wet rocks and mud (even during dry season), with some jagged parts. Definitely a fun trail to speed-ride through, but it's nowhere near beginner friendly, as the description implies.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
