Bit too much snow at the top to be a great ride, gets good halfway down or so

Super sick descent! Starts of a little slow but about 100’ in you’re just hanging on for the ride!! Super fun and even a little bit of flow in some spots!! The real treats though…? Are just beyond the Uterbraten….oooooohhh yeeeahhhh!!!!

The first half is really loamy and more technical. The lower has a bit of this but is more flowy and has some really fun smaller jumps. Great fun!

Lots of trees down on the trail that we couldn’t move on the 3rd section. Orange tape for the falling boundary.

A great descent. Enough roots and bumps to keep it interesting but few challenges, just a really pleasant ride. Lovely descent went combined with Sexy Flanders, max Power and Hutz.

Motos tracks on the top section of this trail, where the descent begins to the first fire road crossing. They really tear up the precious loam. Frig off dirt bikes.
