Description

This trail starts with the second half of the Recliner climb, which is a steep, old fire road for a while, before turning into steep singletrack. Stay right at the Y intersection half way up to stay on Recliner. Once you top out, you'll be on Couch. This is a fast, steeper downhill with some ruts on all decomposed granite. It's a really fun trail section. It can have lots of pine needles on it depending on the season, so be prepared for some slippery grip.
