REVIEW

The Powerhouse Plunge starts with some really nice fast and tight singletrack. You'll only find a couple of obstacles on this section. After you cross the log pyramid the trail starts to become steep and technical. On this section you'll find switchbacks and some really nice steep descents. On one of these descents I bounced during a wipeout, everybody else found it funny but me. Go figure? After the descent you'll come back to some really nice singletrack and you'll be at the powerlines and the Ring Creek Falls Trail.
