This trail can be a bit muddy in the low spots by the creek. Unless you want a deadly climb, Twisted Ankle is best ridden down, I would advise starting at the top of Twisted Ankle and riding down. There are many more trails in the area, but this is just one way through, that I happen to really like. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
