      Re: last comment is ridiculous, I did this on my 100mm XC bike and it was fine, just pick your line and come with skill

      Definitely could be a double black. Don’t even think about hitting this on a bike with less than 180 travel. Tons of mandatory mini-drops with techy root and rock sections the whole way down. Dusty.

      I recant my previous comment. Yes, it's the hardest black at Keystone. But with no mandatory gaps or truly committing features I'd say a black rating is appropriate.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
