One of the most fun trails in the area. This trail is fast and fun. Multiple jump options and some that you can get pretty good air on. You can roll all the jumps, but there are some optional lines for some pretty big table tops. Rip through the trees, hit the berms, and then grind up the dirt road back to the top

        Great trail but pretty torn up with now due to trail work and logging.

        This trail is SO FUN. Great hits and burms to learn on and also push your self a bit. It’s fast and smooth with a easy climb. Lower loop can be done in under 30min the full loop takes about an hour and a half. Upper section is also really smooth with big long burms but no jumps. Have fun!

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
