Description

One of the several sanctioned trails at Rancho La Costa Preserve.

This is not a trail you can ride fast and furious style unless you have Red Bull Rampage skills. It's technical with some steep drops that will make you pucker, loose sections, a couple of tight turns, met with a couple of jumps at the bottom. Take your time making your way down on your first run. Make sure you have good working brakes, you'll need them.

Careful when choosing your line. Once you get familiar with the trail, it's a riot to ride.
