Trash Panda has it all. It's long. It's hard. It's fun. It features jumps, berms, drops, screaming downs and some stoutish climbs. There's even some pretty vistas along the way. It also completes the dream of the Western Loop.

This trail is unsanctioned.

Disclaimer

Exercise caution when trail merges or crosses other thoroughfares. And as always know your limit and ride within it.

      		 The first G-Out (drain pipes) has been worked on and is not as steep and may not erode as much now.

      		 Looks like a heavy rain washed down the gut and created a massive rut. One large gap jump has been built. Ridearound is there too.
