Description

Opened in November of 2010, this beautiful ride along the ridge of Double Oak Mountain is sure to be fun and challenging. Very different from other areas of the park, you will see tight singletrack mixed with plenty of rocks, great views and tree canopies.

There are optional features on the side for those inclined for some rockhopping or riding of a 6 foot tall boulder.
