TTFs on TrailRock Face, Rock Garden
Preferably ridden in the counterclockwise direction, Playground is a short internal loop with many line choices and fun rock rolls and drops to play around on. This trail also allows you to access the Reservoir Backside without climbing the entire Red Rock trail. Jump on a connector at the North end if you're looking for a shortcut to Bear Bones, or complete the whole loop and head onto RSVP or back up for another lap.
Access Info
There are two points of access off to the left hand side of the Red Rock climb.
