Trail Quirks

Shoutouts to all the cool stuff you can't see on the Ridge to Rivers map, mostly from the mountain biker's perspective. If you've been out hiking or riding in the Boise Foothills, you'll know some of these quirks well.
Eff's Jump

Boise's most famous trail quirk has been frequented by the Dupp brothers since they had training wheels.

Red Cliffs

You can't jump them or anything, but they sure are perty to look at.

The Big Hill

If you're just starting out with the whole mountain bike thing, you'll want to test your lungs against The Big Hill. It just might convince you to play golf instead.

It's time to get outside and play. Here's a stretch of trail to put your motocross skills to the test.

The Cairn

What's the difference between a rock pile and a cairn? A funny-sounding name and a good view.

The Elbow

Don't resist the temptation to stop at this little resting place. The top can wait.

Pat didn't see the Merry Men anywhere, but that doesn't mean there wasn't some jocularity going on.

Torpedo Bend

Remember, you can look at the unexploded ordnance, just don't touch it.

Get a little air without leaving the ground. We guarantee you'll have fun or your money back.

Moon Lander

You might think you've exited the Earth's orbit when you get this high up on Hard Guy.

Ogre Hoss

Don't disturb the beast or you will be very, very sorry.

Ever ridden your mountain bike in rural North Africa? If not, here's a good place to see what it would be like.

These pearly gates are almost as difficult to get through as the ones up on high.

Pizza Face

This is an ugly one that could definitely benefit from a thick application of Clearasil.

The Stumphump

What would you do if there were a big tree across the trail? Well, this is one creative solution you could use.

We haven't seen a ramp this nice since those old Dukes of Hazzard episodes. Just don't let Daisy distract you or you'll end up at the Hazzard County Hospital.

This one will get your heart beating about 170 before it chews your pride up and spits it out. Better just bow and start pushing.

The Big Dip

Have fun going into this one, but be prepared for the other side or it'll eat you up.
