Awesome, awesome trail. You ride underneath a rocky overhang much of the time, carving through challenging but workable rocky bits. Not a trail for beginners, it is really for advanced riders who are confident in their bike handling. Drop-off on one side throughout, but worst parts are roped off to catch you if an untimely crash occurs. Probably my favorite trail that I rode in a week in Bentonville, for both the beauty and the challenge.
Some tough climbs, some flow. I only rode 14 miles from Lake Avalon. There is a rest stop in Bamboozled that has beer and water . A few creek crossing and awesome views of several different waterfalls. Mostly small aggregate and rocks . Omse smalll fun side loops . Got off track a couple times
, not all signs have been installed yet. A lot like riding back 40 which connects to Tunnel Vision .
I save my 5 stars for the truly epic rides, and I'm probably between 3 and 4 stars for this new trail near Bentonville. Its another well-constructed trail in NW Arkansas. Mostly machined flowy trails with lots of berms and a few smaller jumps and rollers, not much tech unless you include tight switchbacks. Several tougher climbs, although not Rocky Mountain-type climbs. Like several NW Arkansas trails, the soil could get "gravely" but this newer trail isn't bad yet. Definitely worth adding to your Bentonville itinerary.
