Family Friendly Parking near trailhead is safe and easy. Playground nearby. Easy bail points along paved Greenbelt.

Description

This trail begins at the bridge to the playground from the Greenbelt and runs along the backside of the ball field. The first half of the trail is relatively easy going with some flow and very minor obstacles. The latter half of the trail picks up with some climbing, more flow, berms, and larger obstacles. The downhills can be fast with tight turns. The final downhill has three drops with ride-around options.
