Land Owner
The name says it all...bermed and twisty. Descends fast and fun and climbs extremely well with small moderate ups and flat releifs after the switchbacks. Nice bench mid way for relaxing above the creek.
Access Info
Descending: Enter Upper Basin and about 200 yards in bear left at switchback intersection.
Climbing: enter from Future Road after popping out of the FLO (lower) trail
