Originally designed to be ridden like a figure eight(when coming from Shady Grove) this trail is fun either way you choose to go when you get to the intersecting part of the 8 but if you do choose to stay left then you will come across the intersection of where Fiddler's Green ends so be sure to stay right. Roots are at a minimum with 2-3 very short pieces that might get your attention.

This trail is unsanctioned.
