Land OwnerSalt Lake City Parks & Public Lands
A hidden gem with flowing gap jumps. The top has become easier to find as it appears to be better cut into the grass, and the trail reveals itself further as you continue down. Fun berms and small jumps, make for a flowing rush through the trees.
Per the Trail Plan this will become a downhill only MTB trail
