Trail Overview

The trail that started it all, Independence, is a short but brutal crawl through rocky washes and canyon terrain. Its steep drop-ins, vertical ledges, and tight exits make it every bit as difficult as Patriot, despite its shorter length. Independence serves as a gateway to the full trail system, delivering an immediate adrenaline rush and setting the tone for what lies ahead. This trail is perfect for seasoned drivers looking for a concentrated dose of technical challenges without committing to a full-day run.
