Easiest jump line at Thunder Mountain, no gaps and everything is rollable. A great trail to build confidence on or to take a break from the more intense riding.

Most of this trail is skiable in the winter, IF snow conditions are firm / fast. You'll have to push for some of it, and snowboarders will find this to be a real chore in spots ... but you can have a good time on this if conditions are right. You might want to cut some of the switchbacks off by skiing through the trees to carry speed / momentum. On snow the two best parts of this trail is the series of 3 tight berms near the beginning, and the final jump line near the end.

       This was my first time actually mountain biking. This trail was great for beginners to build confidence to hit larger and bigger jumps.
