Features Drops/Jumps

One Way Only: This is designated as a directional trail.

Description

This trail is the result of the 2015 Bell Helmets/IMBA trail grant. It's designed for high level riders with serious gaps and drops, which should all be rolled slowly the first time down.

See the 50-foot long, near vertical wall ride at the top and jump into the flow, big berms and tabletop jumps. Take the alternate rock garden line for something different. If you have the skill, try the diving board rock launch on the rock garden section but be careful, the rock is not forgiving!
