A very technical trail with some major exposure that descends from the top of Poison Spider Mesa to the Colorado River. Done at the tail end of an epic ride from Gemini Bridges to Gold Bar Rim to Blue Dot. A must do for anyone craving a technical, ledgy downhill trail. Short but worth it.

I reckon bits of that would be sketchy to walk, let alone ride.

Can't see NPWS leaping at the chance to open up trails like that in NSW.... Smiling

Do they update the sign each time someone falls off?
