Twisted Tree

Distance
1.5 ml

Difficulty:
Intermediate with a few advanced moves. Rough sandstone stretches, steep swooping turns and some moderately tight turns to cross over sandstone benches.

Type of Ride:
Starts off of Whiptail with a fast descent toward the cliff. Ledges and switchbacks keep it interesting as you glance toward the looming cliff of Shafer. Sandstone is rough but offer great traction for the short climbs.
