Steep, switchbacked old school trail at MERA.
Mountain Biking Difficult
Zig Zag is one of the old school trails in the MERA trail system, zig zagging dramatically up or down the hillside. These tight switchbacks are quite climbable, although a bit challenging on the uphill. When pointed downhill, the switchbacks are too tight to make for an enjoyable ride, leading most people to drop into the steep fall line Rough Riders trail.
Difficult
Mostly stable trail tread with some variability featuring larger and more unavoidable obstacles that may include, but not be limited to: bigger stones, roots, steps, and narrow curves. Compared to lower intermediate, technical difficulty is more advanced and grades of slopes are steeper. Ideal for upper intermediate riders.
