Mellow meandering trail that can be linked with Green goblin to create and easy 4km loop or combined with other trails in the Hooch network. Multi use and multi directional. A series of small wood features have been built at the south end (parking lot end) of the trail. Fun to hit as you head back to the parking lot from Hooch or on their own. Great for the kids and just a short pedal to hit them all.

Access Info

Start from the Hooch parking lot at 1.5km on the FSR

 Blood Sweat and Beers is not a trail for the faint of heart. Brutally steep for a normal drop.
