      Nice flow trail, intermediate at best. The Shute is a blast!
      WillKeene545
      I honestly really enjoy this trail. Some good sections of flow but also some really good chunky tech here and there. Lots of climbing both counter clockwise and clockwise.

      One of my favorite trails - lots of Little Rock gardens - no significant technical features that can’t be ridden around or rolled (but some great things to hit if you’re so inclined - especially the boulder jumps)

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
