Description

Cinch is a wide, smooth dirt road from top to bottom. Experienced riders shouldn't bother with this, but this is great for families or beginners. It's never very steep, but you'll want good brakes. Be careful of ski area vehicles driving uphill, and watch out for loose surface on the corners.

Great scenery as it zigs and zags around the ski area. It's a good option for grinding uphill if you're not using the lift.
