Description:
We pedaled this trail on 7/6/20 and feel obligated to share with others what it was like:
This trail spends tons of time going through marshland. There are huge sections of trail where there is entirely no trail at all and you're just riding your bike semi-blind through wet/mushy ground trying to get to the next tree that has a blue diamond on it. There was a brief section in the middle that was on dry land but had lots of trees down. I would recommend avoiding this trail until much later in the year when things are dry unless you're into type 2 or 3 fun. Even so, there is no visible trail for a lot of it, so even if it's dry, you'll be riding mostly aimlessly through tall grasslands.
