The Silo is the newest trail section at Monarch. It's one heck of a climb to get there - don't be ashamed if you walk part of it. Ride at your own risk, but the blue is all rollable. The signage is great - they warn about drops and even note which trails have rollable vs non-rollable drops. There's a neat technical section before the entrance to the Silo that you should check out too.

My only complaint is if you ride the entirety of The Silo, you'll miss the exit that will let you complete the black. There's a path under the big wood bridge at the midway point that heads left (if you face downhill) that's the way out. If you ride all the way down... you get to climb all the way up just to leave.
