Trail Overview

This trail throws you right into the mix. Expect numerous rock gardens with rocks ranging from basketball size to larger rocks that you should only tackle if you are lifted 3 inches or above. Most obstacles have a bypass around them (if needed). The bypasses can be difficult also but are passable. Water on this trail ranges from shallow puddles to deeper holes. There are lots of fun climbs up rock steps, where you will be scrambling for traction. Rocks get slick if there is water or mud on them. This track is more of an advanced track and light damage is possible if you aren't focusing on the task at hand.
