Description

Powerline is fast-paced and action-packed. Similar to Missing Link, the berms and rollers are plentiful but without the steep slopes.

Powerline starts at the bottom of Missing Link and Ball-N-Jack. The route drops into two big berms and then stretches out as the forest opens up. From here there are long runs of traversing singletrack punctuated by intermediate rollers and tabletops.

Navigate a few more berms before merging with Skyline just before reaching the bottom of the lift.
