SuperBear is the same line as the old Bear DH Downhill course. Was machined in 2015, but with time has morphed back into a lot of its old self. Top-half is full-on black diamond downhill. Lower half is more flowy with some rollers/jumps but still some consequences.

Please be advised that this trail is Downhill riding only!!

Some old reports and books suggest uphill climbing which is no longer advised. There is a climb trail [L=https://www.trailforks.com/trails/big-trouble-little-chainring/ Big Trouble in Little Chainring/BTLC [/L] which is climbing only from the Mill Pond and will take you to the top of this trail via a logging road.

Access Info

Ascend up Big Trouble Little Chainring, ride across the road, and then descend on Super Bear.
