One Way Only: This is designated as a directional trail.

Overview

Two quick laps and two fun downhill trails. High payout fun with a climb that isn't too bad.

Description

Park at the Sparky dirt parking lot just off of Richardson Flat road. Head south on the Sparky up loop. The trail starts in a boring sagebrush field but soon you'll be meandering through scrub oak just east of Interstate 40. There are a few switchbacks as the trail climbs up the low hills south of the trailhead.

Finally you'll crest the hill and see the beginning of Family Truckster. Drop in and enjoy the 'Blue' rated flowy goodness. Wide smooth berms and optional jumps abound. Finish and head back to the west on Rusty's Return a doubletrack that will take you back to the Sparky climb. Climb it again.

This time stay left to drop into Sparky down for a few hundred feet. Fork right onto the Cousin Eddie drop in. Send it over the optional gaps (recommended to look at these jumps before going full-send). There are large smooth berms, gap jumps, a wooden ramp jump (roll-able) and lots of fast flow. finish on Sparky down back to the parking lot.
