Description

This is an optional extension to gain some elevation, then enjoy some swoops, berms, and jumps on a flowy downhill. The climb to the top is punchy and a little steep, but completely worth it for the downhill. Catch it from the uphill portion of the Witches Fingers section, look for the blue sign.
