Fun flowing, downhill slanting trail with occasional roots, smooth singletrack and good corners. Trail starts with slight XC climb then descends down to the access trail. Near the bottom there's a larger drop off the side of the main trail that can be used as a shortcut. If you decide not to take the shortcut, there's a small drop and a small table top jump on the main trail which are optional.

      Large tree down across trail before the gap between the two trees leading into a left hand turn setting up to the drop.

      Be very careful as trails aren’t one way or clearly noted as biking trails I encountered several hikers in springboard and diving board that had no clue they were hiking up a trail with significant drops and jumps super sketchy in my opinion!

      This is a fun trail. It has nice berms throughout and little rock/root drops. The main log drop is difficult to get to because the lip of the 1st berm in the final berm section is in the way. On the plus side - there is a beautiful kicker at the bottom of the berm that's just as much fun as the log drop.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
