Gold is re-opened.

A re-imagination built in 2020-2021 that pays homage to the original trail (circa 2000). Expect ladder bridges, skinnies, drops, gaps, and a steep rock roll. Most of these options are rated double black diamond and there is an alternate line for all. If it's your first time down the trail, we recommend check the options out before sending it.
