This turn off takes you on the actual Cardiac Hill Trail. It's a fun place to get in a quick workout with a decent amount of vert. There is some loose gravel on a lot of the trail, so I don't know how hard I would send the downhills. The lower trail on the way back sees less traffic than the upper double-track trail.
