We always start on green. Just the way we start any bike park. Here is how I would go:
Snowshed Lift (the left side)
1. Easy street to Roller (green) - warmup
2. Step It Up (blue flow) to Coaster (blue flow) - Coaster is 100% the right way to end this run
3. Jump Start (blue jump trail)
4. Rabbit Hole (black tech) - just gives yo a break from the balls-out adrenaline
Ramshead Lift (right side)
1. Blue Magic (blue jump line) - this was closed as of 2 weeks ago
2. Krusty (blue tech) - I love this trail. This is where I crashed and destroyed my GPS screen but it's still awesome
3. Steel Panther (black tech) - harder than Rabbit Hole but nothing insane
4. Black Magic (black jump) - this is above my pay grade
5. Goat Skull (black/red tech) - eh, there are 2 drops here that are surely advanced but otherwise this is a decent black tech trail
* Sideshow Bob (blue identity crisis) - I guess you need to do this for completeness but this is the most overrated trail there
The Big Lift (to the top)
* note that this is a long round trip
I think the way you need to do it is as follows:
1. Down the crappy gravel road
(?) I see Scarecrow on the map but we missed this last year
2. The Light
3. Cable Trail
4. Solitude
5. Shreddie
6. Snake Bite Upper
7. Snake Bite Lower
-> then into Easy Street on that side
I do not advise spending too much time at the top. It may or may not be fixed up at this point. And it's sort of not the focus of the park's efforts. I think a round trip is typically 45 minutes. But you know you're there, so you should try it.
On the bottom 2 lifts - I would bounce back & forth depending on the lines.
For the most part I think these were pretty spot on. The immediate thing I realized is that the trail rating system is one level down from creek, green is gravel bike, blue is green, single black is blue, etc..
My comments in bold:
Snowshed Lift (the left side)
1. Easy street to Roller (green) - warmup 100% can be skipped, suitable for a gravel bike. Step it up is perfect for a warm up. Maybe Roller if you need a green.
2. Step It Up (blue flow) to Coaster (blue flow) - Coaster is 100% the right way to end this run.
Coaster is great. We hit it a ton. You can add a variation with wiggle in the middle of this run. It is a green trail but super fast and flowy.
I would throw in the Stinky flow progression area in here, easy drops with some tables.
3. Jump Start (blue jump trail),
the last 1/4 of this could be a black as some of those tables were big and even had a double in there
4. Rabbit Hole (black tech) - just gives yo a break from the balls-out adrenaline
This was sorta just meh for me, rode it once and was done with it.
Ramshead Lift (right side)
1. Blue Magic (blue jump line) - this was closed as of 2 weeks ago.
Top half was open and good, the bottom was still closed at Escape Route. Escape route was fun and my son went OTB there.
2. Krusty (blue tech) - I love this trail. This is where I crashed and destroyed my GPS screen but it's still awesome.
Some ok sections, but kinda meh otherwise.
3. Steel Panther (black tech) - harder than Rabbit Hole but nothing insane.
I didnt realize this was off side showbob, missed it.
4. Black Magic (black jump) - this is above my pay grade.
This is my number one trail on that side, 100% Those last few jumps are above my grade. I cleared most of the other stuff but not all. Some of the tables were mis-sized.
5. Goat Skull (black/red tech) - eh, there are 2 drops here that are surely advanced but otherwise this is a decent black tech trail.
We didnt do the top because it was slick the second day, but the bottom was great.
* Sideshow Bob (blue identity crisis) - I guess you need to do this for completeness but this is the most overrated trail there.
100% could be skipped. Hit it once and that was enough. Not sure how this is the highest rated trail there.
The Big Lift (to the top):
* note that this is a long round trip

We only did the top once and I should have come down scarecrow or steel panther. Otherwise the trails were kinda meh.
One thing I noticed is that you have some big stuff like that drop on upper cable, that just seem out of place. Maybe the plan is to have big stuff like that all the way down. Otherwise, great time, less aggro than creek, which was great for my sons progression.
