Raider Creek

Overview

The north end of Raider Creek drops off of Valley Drive and starts a comfortably wide singletrack descent through a fern-covered depression. There's nary a root to interrupt the smooth tread as the ends of Brave Heart and Princess Run are soon passed. From there the trail turns south and begins a casual climb through a pretty corridor that seems like an old doubletrack that's shrunk down to singletrack. The trail widens even more after the intersection with the Campground Trail before it ends on the gated North Floral Circle.

Watch for the tree-pinches. This one was narrower than my brake levers.

A succession of tight hair-pins makes for some challenging cornering.
