we used to call it ‘running the hill’ but once every few years i go with my best friend and the boys in his family would go to this old decaying granite patch on pikes peak. it’s essentially all gravel. we would run down through the trees and it was probably the closest feeling to skiing you could get. his dad would run the same hill in high school and maybe one day our kids will run it too. . . none of us want kids but thats just a minor detail lol.
this vid doesn’t do it justice but its pretty steep
