    Berm

For a long time this trail was both a climb and descend trail. Since the Armstrong Trail (Uphill Only) was built, this trail has been commonly referred to as a DH only trail. Berms have been put in and it has it's fair share of washboard ruts before the turns now. While it is fast down, you still have the occasional hiker and rider coming up, so be watchful

Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Blue Rating: Intermediate features and steeper terrain.

Trail is 12 - 30” wide although the bench cut ranges from 20 - 36”. Some ruts and tight switchbacks. Mostly on camber. Crossing a ski run there are a few moments of off-camber that could be dangerous for some riders. Fun and challenging.
