very technical, difficult to clear. Almost a double black, but not quite. Climbs better from South to North. Awesome views at the top.

Entrance is hard to find but it’s there very faint. I’m an intermediate advanced rider and could not clear everything on the climbs due to it smoking me just getting to them. Views are fantastic. There is an alternate line called “lap dance” it’s pretty cool but has some rough spots. The exit down to middle earth is a loose forearm burner. Have fun!

Agree with first comment the downhill feels like just losing tons of elevation without the flow factor. Views are the best you’ll find in the burbs. Gonna have to try lap dance didn’t know it was a separate dh option

I think most of the value of this trial is in its difficult and punchy south-to-north technical climb. There are sections I did not clean, but are ridable. The climb is littered with very punchy, off-camber pop-ups and switchbacks. Most of these moves require total commitment which is made scarier with the exposure. Not "death" exposure but "broken things" exposure. For me, this climb is more difficult than any other I have tried in the Vegas area. Though I hear Tomahawk is even harder. The downhill feels mainly like a steep loose elevation scrub. For context: I can clean climbs on trials like The Hurl, Kibbles n Bits, and the Hiline, but for me…this may take a while. Beautiful views from the top and great work by the builders. I think we will skip this downhill and hit the new lapdance option to the right at the top.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
