Land Owner
This is an incredibly fun trail that starts off with a jump into a huge step down that you can send to the moon if you’d like. Then it dips down into the trees and straight into a 6 foot rock drop (ride around to left and right) and into a rock with a small 1.5 foot drop on the other end. Carry on further it gets a little steep and chunky with a few rock drops scattered here and there before it eventually meets up with Pro DH. Overall a very fun trail and arguably the best trail there
Access Info
Go down Judi chop and then go straight instead of taking ninja bob. Continue straight.
