This trail has a series of rock slabs! They are all super fun! There is one long slab that can get pretty intimidating! It's a straight shot, so hold it strong and you'll ride out fine. This was my favorite tech route on the upper section of the Fitzsimmons area! My favorite route was Upper Joyride to Detroit Rock City.
