UPDATE: This trail has been modified/changed. The entrance now has a drop that can be rolled followed by the fast descent to right handed berm. The next feature is a gap jump off a downed tree, this can also be rolled over. A short pedal follows and then another downhill to drop into the big turn on Horseshoe. Remember to Pre-Ride, Re-Ride, then Free-Ride
