Description

After you're done climbing Twisted Sister, take a quick breather at the fenceline. Turn right back around and descend the singletrack you just came up. If you didn't notice it on the way up, there's a fork in this trail that you'll stay left on for Jail Break.

If the descent of upper Twisted Sister wasn't good enough, your descent is about to become sublime. It is possible to go way too fast on this trail. It's rarely straight and will keep the fun coming. Be aware there are spots with some significant exposure to your left and the trail is always narrow.

The bottom of the descent is marked by a hard turn to the right and back uphill for the climb out. If you come to the cattle pond, you have gone about 100 feet too far. The climb out has only about half the vertical of the descent.
