Description

Got full suspension? You'll love bouncing through rock gardens testing out your skills on this trail. Sections of nice easy singletrack give you a break from the technical sections, and a short connector near the old dam gets you back and forth from Ben's Run Trail.

There is another connector a little further away on the other side of hollow allowing riders to bail out of the last rock garden section early to get to the relative "safety" of Ben's Run Trail.
