Overview

True grit was designed and built to be a classic for the beginner mtb rider, and it shows! The climb from the adventure center is easy and soft surfaced, while the trail down is smooth, with many flowing berms and easy low grades making it great fun for everyone.

Description

Begin at the adventure center for Tahoe Donner, where an easy, soft trail surface fire road and singletrack mix takes you up towards hawks peak. Not quite to the summit (where the trail gets steeper) true grit downhill trail appears, offering an escape back down to the parking lot via easy flowing singletrack full of berms, rollers, and easy straight low angle sections of trail. This is great for any skill level, with plenty of shade under pine trees and no technical areas.
