Description
Jughead is an intermediate downhill trail with shades of difficulty throughout the segment. The trail has a little bit of everything that whiskey offers. Nice sections of flow, big turns, some roots, classic loam, hidden stumps and a few option lines to spice things up a bit. Watch out for the diving board about half way and dont get too comfortable descending, there's some mid trail ups and downs and a small climb out at the end.
It's a downhill only trail for mountain bikers so please be aware of potential mountain bikers coming down fast! Quickly pull over if you hear a biker behind you & always be respectful.
You may want to kill just a bit of battery before dropping in at the top, but not too much because you will need to take the road back up to your car(about .7 of a mile up)
Start and Finish
Start Point
Make a left off of gorse road onto hollerback, and almost an immediate right is the starts of JugHead, just after the post.

Directions from Parking
(click the video walkthrough link for an easy route to follow from the parking lot, to the trail, and back to your car!) From the parking space, go north on West Beaver Hill Road, then Walk west on Gorse Road, you're gonna pass a few intersections, to stay on Gorse Road until you see Hollerback Trail. turn left on Hollerback Trail, then Turn right onto Jughead.
A lap down the segement and up the forest road back up to the top of the segment takes 15% battery on a GT. If you ride to and from the segment from the main parking area via Hollerback, you should be able to get 4 laps of the circuit on a GT.
