Description

From the crossroads with Bumble Bee, head south on Grasshopper, which climbs out of sight, up and over a hill top. At first it descends an easy section of trail until Hawk branches off left. At that point, Grasshopper changes, leading you through twists and turns littered with rock forms, small drops, and steep turns. Although not as scary-technical as Hawk, Grasshopper has a few moments that will make you sweat.
