    Gap Jump

A former classic freeride trail with rollable double jumps, step down and a cliffy area at the bottom that's had various drops built over the years. The bottom has a ride around that's not hard as the former drop at the bottom is mostly used by kids and a rope swing.

Still makes a fun descent and could be easily improved with a few evenings of work.
