Description

The Darkside follows the north side of a small forest valley featuring switch backs and awesome singletrack trail. This trail will certainly require some intermediate fitness, as this trail will challenge visitors with a combination of long and moderately steep climbs. There is an old bridge you'll come across as well, so beware your footing.
