Description

Flux Capacitor is the longest trail in the Electric Hills Trail System. It offers flow, challenging rock moves, water crossings, a seasonal waterfall(!), and great views. One drop in particular will make you thankful for a dropper post. The trail is intended to be ridden counter-clockwise, but is fun in either direction. Combine Flux Capacitor with Electric Avenue for a great taste of Electric Hills.
