Description

This is a route that includes almost all of the Wilds singletrack, leaving from the main trailhead parking lot on SR 146. It is about 90% singletrack with a few doubletrack transitions to connect up with various trails. The singletrack can be challenging with technical sections of rocks and roots. There are large jump features on the enduro sections, but all have go-arounds.
