Picture of the obstacle, location and brief description. Goooo
Patapsco State Park,MD on a downhill section. Loose logs stacked in between. 3 foot drop after the 2nd tree, or you can opt for a blind board ramp to exit. Lots of fun.

I'm not real familiar so there could be a better way. It is called Vineyard spring trail. You come through the tunnel and lost lake is on your left. Turn right, and go up the trail about 1/2 mile. The trail head is on your right (under the rr track). Follow it for about 3 miles along the creek. YOu come to a service road, then shoot straight across.
The hard climbs of the Grant Hill Trail, Pinaleno mountains, AZ 9000-9500'. The place was almost deserted but we were visited by 2 skunks and a bear. Summer monsoon flowers everywhere.
I'll play! This is called Big Daddy and it's on the Boondocks Trail at Northstar Bike Park near Truckee, CA. It's very easy because of a perfect approach and an armored landing.
The only scary part is I'm the guy on the bike and I'm 3 times the age of the biker watching me. :eekster:

Trail: Funner
Location: Bend, OR
This rock is about 2 1/2 to 3 ft high. I have always shied away from stuff like this but this rock has haunted me since last year when I rode the trail for the first time. I hit it a couple of weeks ago & cleaned it. This gave me the confidence to try harder stuff on the trail. I didn't clean everything but I did a lot more than I thought I would. It was a great day on the trail.
I know that rock!
I was following some dude named Todd who was showing me around Funner. He went over the rock like nothing so I followed (I'm an idiot), I actually made it, but my heart was in my throat when I saw the steep side. That was also the day I cleared my first skinny, I think it was call the hidden or ghost skinny cause you didn't see until you were right on top of it.
A little step up, ladder bridge to step down gap that my buddy built a few years ago. I first cleaned it a year or so ago but this is the first video evidence.
It's the Notch AKA upper body bag in Moab UT, for good reason. I've cleaned the first section a few times. The problem is where the camera man is standing, there is this hard right with a weird tree/root/rock chunk section. I always seem to come into it a bit rowdy. This was my attempt at slowing things down. Bad idea.
Nice work on cleaning Horsethief, it's tough to even see the line in there when you just stand and look at it.
Plenty of pucker facter spots in Curt Gowdy too, definitely keeps you on your game.
Ouch at the Notch crash!
Your video isn't showing for me Kent for some reason.
It is actually an incline. And I've just read a lot of accounts of people doing it all wrong. A four-footer doesn't really worry me much, but I land with all the delicacy and grace of a metal trash can full of rocks. One day, when my drops to flat get lighter...
Awesome pic. Assuming you have a good wife at home that lets you get away with that.
