This trail is best done clockwise if you are looking for more descents. The initial drop-in is a fast, narrow, and weaving descent followed by a right hand bermed corner. Next you'll cross a short hand-made wooden bridge with an option to merge onto other trails just after. If you stay straight on High Meadow, you'll enjoy various features and multiple line options for the remainder of the trail. The crowd favorite is the fast descent at the midway point, that starts just after a small log drop. In the winter months, views of Turkey Creek Lake, found near the end of the trail at the point, provide an excellent background for photos . All features, such as the log drop and rock gardens have ride-around options which makes this trail fun for all skill levels.

If you are looking to get some climbing in, run the trail counter clockwise by taking the Cabin Fever entrance located to the right of the fire pit and wooden swing. If riding this direction, be prepared for a fast, winding descent and a jump option (also has a ride around) just before finding the entrance to High Meadow to the left. It is definitely gets the adrenaline going before starting that climbing workout
