Description

Claim Jumper takes off to the east from Roc Garden along a sharp eroded cliff. As the trail descends the precipice becomes a chasm where water from the gold mines above flowed out toward Hog Burn stream. Claim Jumper follows the edge of this chasm as it drops down to the road. This is a short but fun ride, and the erosion is surprisingly aesthetic.
