The top section is more flow trail like. It has berms and jumps and rides pretty fast. The lower part has more rock rolls, rock gardens and along with the bermed corners. It also has a big rainbow ramp with a bit of air at the end. It's easy to loop it with UVU Connector. This trail is a bit more difficult than other blue trails in the area but most things can be ridden slow or fast.

        I finished the reroute of Upper Frodo's today. You can now ride it without going through the construction area. Hopefully we will be able to ride Frodo's, top to bottom, for a long time now.

        They are almost done with the construction on the catchment pond then we can get this going again. Be careful if you decide to past the closed sign.

        Rode it for the first time today - Gem of a trial. Think Rush with table tops, a whale tail, and a ton of fun rocky tech.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
