Description

This is a great trail, but a bit slippery in winter. It connects to a whole network of trails with about 5 different ways to finish your ride. There is a decent amount of drops, launches, and a few gaps. Start at Forbidden Plateau for a couple of sickos on the way down. Some sweet scenery stops along the way. Very popular trail for the locals, and quite well maintained.

Directions:

Drive the Forbidden Plateau Rd. from Courtenay. Either park at Nymph Falls and ride up, or shuttle from the Forbidden ski hill parking lot at the end of the road. The trail starts at a bend in the road about 4/5 of the way up, but you can connect to it from the parking lot via a fast trail with some big gappers on it.

Two bike shops near to choose from;(1)Mikes bikes on Lake trail rd. on the way there and(2)Dodge city cycles in Cumberland if you ride there from the lake.
