Description

This loop trail is very nice and well kept. Watch out for the loops because you can easily get turned around while on your ride. There are some nice berms and spots on the trail where you can cut loose and test your limits. Some spots are pretty tight and come up fast if you're not careful. Overall, this is a great trail that deserves more credit.

Many forks in the road, just pick one and keep going! I went right at the trailhead and rode backwards. Just as much flow as the front! Great ride! 4.6mi
