SuperBear is the same line as the old Bear DH Downhill course. Was machined in 2015, but with time has morphed back into a lot of its old self. Top-half is full-on black diamond downhill. Lower half is more flowy with some rollers/jumps but still some consequences.

Please be advised that this trail is now Downhill riding only!!

Some old reports and books suggest uphill climbing which is no longer advised. There is a climb trail [L=https://www.trailforks.com/trails/big-trouble-little-chainring/ Big Trouble in Little Chainring/BTLC [/L] which is climbing only from the Mill Pond and will take you to the top of this trail via a logging road.

      Built up the jump some more. Feels pretty good, low consequence, if you come up short you're just landing flat.

      		 Tons of mud right in front of the jumps. Someone is doing some great work on some lip rebuilds, roll over features, etc.

       So much fun, it's fast and flowy, barely touched the brakes cause everything is burmed nicely and jumps launch into transitions really well. You can ride out the doubles if you don't think you'll clear the gap cause the gap is still trail which is nice for first run on a new trail. I've been on some doubles where the gap is debris and rocks and roots so you have to clear it first time.
