Trail Overview
This 1-mile segment is one of the toughest portions of the Enduro Trail, packed with relentless roots, tight lines between trees, and advanced rock features. Expect steep, leaf-covered hills with loose rocks, deep troughs, and root drop-offs that challenge even experienced riders. There are a couple of standout rock obstacles that include steep rock shelves with blunt, stair-step formations cutting diagonally across the trail. You want to avoiding getting pinched in the gaps between the boulders. Slick root bands can easily send a rider sideways in narrow spots. There is a bailout option at the end of Stage 2 if the difficulty has been overwhelming, as Stage 3 maintains a similar level of technical intensity.
