This trails flows well, until a short section in the middle that will test your climbing skills and balance. A tight turn and some small rock gaps make for a difficult section to clean without dabbing.

      We enjoyed descending on this trail. Like the other trails that we rode here, this trail is also well-designed. It has some challenging rock sections but not too challenging to ruin the fun factor. It was also good to see cows throughout the trail system. We are all for multiple use of our public lands ( and we like beef!!).

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
