Loose Double track that runs straight up the hill. This is the quickest return for DH laps on Pig Skull or Jurassic but it's strenuous. On a pedal bike there's several sections that are very steep, on an e-mtb it's a reasonable climb.

If you use this as a DH (but really, don't), watch your speed on the loose surface and keep an eye open for hikers.
