Land OwnerJon Schaefer
Lots of tight turns, but the berms are wide and tall. Some rooty sections through the trees and some machine made jumps make this trail really fun.
This trail is a lot of fun to ski in the winter, assuming sufficient snow coverage. Most of it is contained in the glade named "Blizzard Island," but the start near the Hawleywood sign is also quite fun. The berms and the bridges are skiable.
