“A rugged trail with tight corners, lots of roots, rocks and technical riding. Rowdy downhill!”

Recommended as one way/downhill.

Description

This is the classic shuttle run of Crawfish. You miss the top mile+ by not ascending Knott, but you get the best of what this rowdy, fast, tight and technical trail has to offer. The trail can be accessed at two other lower points on road 2263-717 and the bottom access point sees the most shuttle action.

Radical trail for a fun-packed rowdy and natural DH/trail experience. Thanks for hosting and showing us the goods Brock! If ever up north to ride, give a shout. Jul 21, 2013
