A steep trail that is off-camber and rooty but is a total blast. It start with a rock drop into a dragons back where you go up and over a rock, then off a Little Rock drop, into a rock roller. After that there is a few turns and steep shoots before crossing Talladega and it is the same the rest of the way down.

Access Info

After the first berm on Talladega split left but don't go into Snake Rock. There will be a few berms and then you'll see the sign for Trail One.
