Before you continue

Clear both landings before starting and make the left turn after the second drop.

What catches people

The second descent is hidden from the first crest and the final turn arrives quickly.

Conditions change it

Sand at the bottoms and traffic over blind crests reduce stopping room.

Fit

Low range, breakover clearance, and controlled slickrock-descending technique.
