      This trail is awesome! It's ridden in really well since being opened. It also gets steeper and rougher after Cub's Way (first road intersection) so if you are with newer or less-confident riders I would take Fred's Lunch at that point.

      I agree with what is said about these jumps. kinda small, but not built great either so very punchy and easy to overshoot. but that is probably the only aspect of this trail I don't like. the primitive style trail going down steep chutes with tight turns is so much fun. Such a great addition. I hope Vail makes more trails like this cause it fits well style wise into the rest of the trail network

      At least you guys are trying now. This has good potential, sick zone, needs some changes. I agree with the first comment, you’re better off building bigger proper jumps. These little BS kickers your putting around are gonna get someone hurt.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
