Overview
Starting at the intersection with the North-South Connector, you'll head west to make your way onto this trail. As you roll through the trees, you'll be pedaling up and down some nice rollers. After passing Cedar Loop you start to head down to the creek bed. (After hitting bottom you'll see Carousel Hill on the other side of the bridge.) Keep heading straight and head right back up the hill. This takes you to the gate on NW 31st Avenue. This is the NW corner of the park. <br><br>For your return, you can take a side trail, or turn around and head back down. Most people will come down, cross the bridge, head up Carousel Hill and connect with the South Ridge Loop. <br><br>Heading east to west this trail is mostly descending.

This isn't that difficult of a turn unless you hit that stump. There is a difficult turn with a 15 inch drop ahead.
