Going to fod next week and want to know which downhill trails. Looking for ones without too many big gaps or massive drops. Can anyone suggest an easy but fun one to start on? Thanks.

Sheepskull and Flatland- straightforward but also brilliant, I could ride them all day. There's not much in the way of big drops, IIRC they're all down really near the bottom beside the pushup path? And not much in the way of mandatory gaps on the jumps, either.

It's a kind of confusing place to navigate- do get a map- but it's awesome, I love it there.

Couple of bigish drops on GBU, some smaller drops on the other trails corkscrew/bottle opener for example. No gap jumps that aren't rollable doubles.

All the big drops have chicken runs to the side.

There’s a big drop on GBU - I just go to the right.
