High Society is a trail that descends steeply from the Flank trail, offering some great views. The trail could be considered a double-black, but is more accurately rated a hard black. Several rooty and rocky drops line the route along with rockfaces, including High Society's signature. High Society is a great trail with great views.

Access Info

The trail descends off the Flank trail in between Working Class and [L=https://www.trailforks.com/trails/legalize-it/Legalize It[/L]. There are a couple of options for accessing the Flank: either ride up the normal entrance from Function or 21 Mile Creek, or more directly via Stonebridge Drive. For the latter, ride up Stonebridge Drive and turn left on Stonebridge Place. At the end of this road, follow an access road up a steep climb. At a water tower veer right onto single track and climb relentlessly until to hit the Flank trail.
