Filming this trail was perhaps my #1 goal when I started the channel and the day has come! The hard part was learning to ride it!

Eagle's Wing is the treasure of the Lunch Loops hidden in plain sight. Actually finding your fellow riders in this part is very rare and for good reason. Eagle's has left a sour taste in the mouth of anyone who doesn't appreciate steep, chunky, slow tech, not to mention it hides behind the portal of Free Lunch and often times it gets missed. Your reward for deferring Free Lunch is the best view in all the valley. To get here climb the Lunch Line to Prayer Rock and defer Free Lunch.

The crux of Eagle's is a serious of double black diamond switchback. Honestly I fell the technical difficulty he is pushing low end "Pro-Line" depending on conditions. These are the scariest switchbacks I've ever ridden! It starts with an option of either 2 ridgeline drops or alternative loose switchbacks. Things tighten up and the riding get really slow over the edge of a short cliff.

After Eagle's Wing, things aren't over yet. The remaining Eagles Tail has plenty of gnar to ride. Most of this ride Black diamond with perhaps 2 short double black diamond sections. Alternatively you can bypass Eagle's Tail and ride back to slanted rock on Eagle's Connector.
