Did some more work today. Made two new jumps and added a feature to one.

First off, is a little slate and rock line that is on the step down jump as a cheater line if you're too scared to go big. I found this random piece of cut slate back on the trail and used it. (and exscuse the picture quality, my camera doesn't like sunlight)

Next is another hit from a side trail. You go right past the step down and up this. Its got a huge lip and kicks you nice and high.

Finally is kicker that will eventually have a ladder section down it. I had gotten started on it, but I ran out of stakes.

Great work and I'm glad you're staying hydrated.

It looks really dry. You should wait for some rain to help pack the lips down.

you should make that a step down to a hip with the second lip and make a little hiper landing with maybe a berm after it...just a thought...i wish i had some space to dig...

Yeah the only issue is those damn trees. I've already hit 2 of them. You just get moving so quick after the step down its hard to react in time. I plan on making some berms eventually, I just gotta muster up the ambition to dig through the roots.

mabe you shouldnt have your ladder so wide? that would get you twice as many if you were to cut it down, and make it a little more challenging

Today I'm actually gonna take out some of the rungs and move the two support logs and taper it down.
