This purpose build cross-country flow trail has berms, rollers you can catch a little air on, and a few challenging sections. There is a section of this trail that could be considered Blue Square that descends from the intersection of Hollerback and Well Shot which includes a few tight turns, slippery mud (all year), and gravel, so ride at your own risk or walk if needed. This is a two way trail but is most fun ridden top to bottom. Use Dirty Dishes to access Stay Tuned if riding top to bottom; or climb Dirty Dishes from the lower parking lot to access Sir Lance A Lot and the western trails.

Access Info

Trail starts at the lower parking lot at The Snag section and climbs to the intersection of Well Shot (DH only) and Hollerback.
