Description

Monster Slayer is a winding trail that's made great by the line choices. The actual trail is routed such that most beginner/intermediates will be challenged but not in over their heads. Advanced and expert riders will find tons of opportunity to choose their own adventures as the rock formations here beg to be ridden.

Bottom line: take your time riding this one and keep your eyes out for fun lines on the rocks.
