Looks like the head to a CO2 pump. Found it on the downhill portion of The Plunge (had plenty of time to notice it since I walked it three times and still decided not to "take it"). 

Left it at the trail kiosk.

The plunge looks worse than it actually is. Just point downhill a let er go. The gap jump at the bottom, on the other hand...

I know - and I could see that it wasn't that bad when I walked it. I think it's the curving entrance and the fact that once you commit you can't hit the brakes and you can't change your mind. 

I have commitment issues...  Roll Eyes

Yeah it's not nearly as bad as it seems. It's really smooth and the bridge at the bottom is wide. Just pedal in, shift back a little, and don't hit your brakes (especially the front) then enjoy the speed.
