      There’s an awesome (optional) black slab at the intersection of Upper Bonehead and Pilsit!

      Nice Flowy descent. Carry on down Pilsit and its a nice chill, flowy and fun way to end the day back to the car!

      This trail gets tight, watch those handlebars! With a few berming corners and a light downhill section, if you are on a trail bike you are sure to have a blast.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
