Need to Know
Trailhead is west of the summit turnaround of the East Bluff driveway. Until a climber trail is completed in fall of 2019, the primary access route for this trail would be to climb
Summer School, before taking the driveway to the top.
Description
Flo'Rion is the first gravity-oriented trail opened at East Bluff Bike Park. Flow-tech is the style of this trail, which combines elements of flow trails such as berms and rollers, with technical sections punctuated by the natural rocky terrain of the bluff. This pattern of flow trail interrupted by a handful of rocky roll-downs is common along the length of Flo'Rion. Less experienced riders will be challenged by the intermediate technicality of the roll-downs, while more experienced riders can catch some air on their way through. This trail is also characterized by a high average grade which leaves the rider with plenty of speed. How long can you go without grabbing the brakes?
Originating west of the driveway turnaround at the summit, Flo'Rion passes through a mix of forest types, including a stand of huge cedars close to the summit. Farther down the trail, you can catch a glimpse of nearby Lake Superior as you huck off a large rock drop—if you dare to take your eyes off the trail. Two rocky roll-downs towards the bottom will take you to the future site of the East Bluff Base Village, before ending at the main driveway, opposite from
Summer School.
