Description: This trail will redefine how you ride steep. It is the most technical steep trail I have ever seen besides face trail in san luis obispo. Definitely worth a drive. It is a non-stop crazy ass rockgarden the entire way down... expect to have a few good crashes so bring armor.

Have not rode this trail since '06, but it is one awesome trail by far. Body armour is highly recommended on this trail, as it can be brutal. Some real gnarly DH & Barb Wire is nothing but fun.

Great trail if you like steep and chunky. The chunk isn't too bad but the trail is steep enough that it will hurt if you stack it. I recommend knee/elbow pads and whatever protection you have. Unfortunately you will be carrying this stuff up a 1200', 1 mile hike a bike. Locals may know a better way to the top.

Similar Trail: Valhalla, face but not really. No monster sections on this trail.

Tower is crazy fun once you can ride it pretty nice. for people who want to ride it, you should bring some battle armor and work on super steep stuff and pointy rocks. takes around eight minutes to ride down. super fun trail overall. Barb Wire part is super fun.

Similar Trail: Face, but not reley.
