Description

Medusa is where you go if you're looking for some serious flow. Similar to Tatamagouche on its southern end, Medusa is a rolling contour trail that runs along the top of the Phase I network.

On the northern end, Medusa is all gravity and flow. From the middle intersection with Tatamagouche, climb briefly to the entrance to the downhill.

Initially the route builds some speed through big bermed turns. It transitions to steeper terrain, deep rollers and tabletop jumps. The finale starts just as you take a hard left into a giant wooden wall ride. From there, Medusa finishes with a series of quick turns and another wall ride.
