A somewhat technical singletrack trail from the upper parking area down to Shelters 5 & 6, Sulphur Springs delivers speed, nicely banked switchbacks, a couple of decent drops and lots of small jumps. The upper lot to the Kanuga / Firetower intersection is a wide rooty (retired) access road that's fun to descend after exploring the northernmost trails at PMSP.
