The best downhill in the area. A stout climb on the roads, a flying decent interrupted by 4 mini climbs along the way. The first two climbs are small, the 3rd is short but has a steep climb section what will test you, the 4th climb has a hike-a-bike section before the final decent. This is a 7 mile moto trail that gets less technical as you descend.

Access Info

Climb up road 1920, take a right at the first split onto road 1922. Climb several miles, take a left-hand, un-marked spur to join Trail 952 (West Quartz Creek), take a left to begin your decent. This will give you 4.5 miles of trail.
An alternate approach is to stay on road 1920 for 8 miles and intersect the trail - this will give you 6 miles of downhill.

      		 5Jul20. Very fun, only a few places that the moto's have eaten up, mostly really solid dirt.

      		 A few trees down that require climbing over/under/around. Rains from a week ago did not evaporate and now the mud has frozen in many places and...

      		 Recent rain has eliminated the dust. Occasional short rowdy rocky gully descents will keep you honest.

       Awesome trail to shuttle. Minimal climbing, 657ft in 7 miles from the top(according to my Strava). More flow and less chunk than the east side Quartz Creek descent.
