You've already seen some of this trail while riding the lift up the mountain, including some of the biggest drops on the trail. World Cup DH has a plethora of substantial drops, including natural cliffs, built-up wooden drops, small ledges, and more. While some of these can be bypassed, others cannot.

While you might think that the drops are the biggest problem, some of the steep, rutted, rock and root-strewn chutes can be even more challenging. Some of the chutes that have seen little maintenance in recent years are extremely eroded, creating full-commitment lines into small catch berms before plunging off of a blind drop into a steep landing with a hard turn... you get the idea.

That said, in between the biggest challenges, you'll find some steep, fast, loamy lines, with steep but rideable bridge rolls, and even some of the best aspen groves on the mountain! While this trail is tough, it's also a rare gem that has a devoted cohort of local riders who will lap it over and over again.
