Late-route spur
Escalator
A narrow optional chute where the vehicle climbs through offset holes and ledges with little room to correct.
Before you continue
Stay on the main route unless an experienced local spotter confirms the current entrance, exit, and line.
What catches people
Tires drop into alternating holes, increasing body angle while the ledges demand steady forward placement.
Conditions change it
Erosion and sand change the holes; a failed attempt can block the chute for following traffic.
Fit
Lockers, high clearance, low gearing, recovery points, and technical off-camber experience.
