For a long time this trail was both a climb and descend trail. Since the Armstrong Trail (Uphill Only) was built, this trail has been commonly referred to as a DH only trail. Berms have been put in and it has it's fair share of washboard ruts before the turns now. While it is fast down, you still have the occasional hiker and rider coming up, so be watchful

      Trees have been removed, and the trail was riding fantastic today.

      A few muddy spots, there were two trees across the trail, one sneaks up on you and is not visible prior to a curve

      One puddle at the bottom before the service road. Easy to avoid.

      Snow at the top you’ll need to walk for about 500 feet. A few trees down as well.

       I have no clue how it has four stars. It just really isn't that good.

       Better than Pinecone. Can't change my mind.

       Absolutely beautiful. Beyond that very rough top to bottom.

       You can technically go up it, but just don’t. Nobody does except lost people on rental bikes. Armstrong is uphill only and goes to the same area.

       I know this trail is very popular, but I did it a couple of days ago and it was not very fun. It was a serious washboard. Even the berms. Kind of disappointed. Hopefully it gets some TLC.

       It's one the classic Park City trails, everyone's ridden it. But for a 1500 foot descent it's pretty boring. Buff, straight, not much in the way of natural or man made features or flow. You're still going to end up on it.
