Description: Head down the trail to the first major obstacle which are the Three fingers of Death. The left finger is the easiest while the right finger is the hardest. The drops are not as bad as they look. The trail is easy to follow have fun it is a blast. Fun fast hard pack with a few drops that you can roll down or jump. The BMX section is a blast a great to practice pumping for speed on the backsides and catching air on the frontsides.

Awesome trail if you like to go do fun drops or even just cruise! difficulty ranges from easy to difficult depending on which lines you decide to take and ride!

Road it from the bottom on up and back down. Trail is a blast. Our buddy dislocated his clavicle on Clavicle Hill so we spent a good few hours in the ER that evening. Nice to have services nearby for sure. Great ride, awesome BMX portions with intermittent cardio-pusing flats. We couldn't find the 3 Fingers though and I think we almost ended up in SLC!!! We got a little lost. It was fun and ended up being almost a 12-mile loop for us.

A fun non technical trail that even advanced riders will enjoy. Defiantly a cross country trail but with a little speed its like pump this, jump that and rail this. Just a fun playful trail.

Pretty sweet trail especially for those who are learning. Some of the drops can be scary for some, but there are trails that go around them as well. Going back towards the bloomington entrance is definitely the funnest. It reminds me of a roller coaster.

Rode this trail from Bloomington side as an out and back. Trail is beginner unless you choose to explore and mess around in the side hills. You can pretty much choose your level on the way back down. There isn't anything that is advanced even if you choose the bigger drops. Fast and fun at the end with many options to race down with other riders. Hard pack turns to powder with no rain.* Review edited 4/21/2010

Rode up from the Bloomington end as an out and back. Climb was mostly mellow and easy all the way up to the 3 fingers. Easy to avoid the Acid drops portion of the climb by staying far left before you reach them. The ride is "Beginner" only if you always take the "ride arounds". A few of the steeper drops could be dangerous depending on the line and your skill. Just ask my buddy Brett who crashed hard at the base of Clavicle hill. Afterward it really feels like a race to the end down the roller coaster. Lots of fun and faster than you might think.

Pretty basic. Good hard pack singletrack, chances for BIG speed on way back w/highberms and plenty of whoops for BIG air.
