One of my favorite trails - some short techy sections and fast slab descents with a great flow throughout

       This where The Whole Enchilada starts to get fun! Amazing views, cool red rock slabs, some techy bits, and a lot of speed. Read more about The Whole Enchilada and UPS here! twowheeledwanderer.com/posts/the-whole-enchilada-what-you-need-to-know

       In my mind this trail is the main reason to ride all the way through to Porc Rim. So good! Slab sections are fun and gnar.
