Description

This twisty and rolling section of the outer loop is super fun. There's a "lung butter" climb toward the west side but once you get up to the top, the view is amazingly spectacular. Continue heading east and start the carve along the Shanty Boy.

Use this singletrack to connect from Road Monkey to Gabriel's Horn.
