    Drop, Gap Jump

Moscow Mountain's only real sanctioned downhill trail. I was first introduced to it by a rider who said, "I decided to check it out, made it about 15 feet, then said 'nope' and turned around."

Access Info

The trail heads straight in a clearing at the top of Up and Over but it can also be entered from Foothill Road, and drops you out on Upper Warnick Rd. Head left on this fire-road to connect with LaFortunes Flight, PLT and more.

      Only trail worth doing 3 times in a row on Moscow mtn in my opinion. One drop in particular with an extra amount of pucker factor.

      Awesome trail! It's a good place to push your boundaries.

      This is the only real pnw style steep trail around. Lots of fun, I've rebuilt it several times.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
