Description:
Rode today. Started out good, but became very overgrown and encountered some downed trees. Was passable, but not great. With some trimming and maintenance this could be a good trail.

Looks like a beaver took down a tree, can get around, or if short enough, under. I went around. view

 This was never a built, or maintained, trail. And, you can see that mods had changed it to a dotted line, in response to earlier comments such as this one:

"This trail is not a safe MTB trail. There is a section towards the West end that no MTB Rider could ever get over. There is a thick rope with knots for hikers to climb up the slope.
At least 2 downed trees that have to be hike a biked over.
A set of skinny painted 4x4 planks are slippery as all hell. Caused accidents.
This trail should be removed as an mtb trail as it is only suitable for hiking."

But then what happened is that SAME guy who made the above comment, quite recently submitted an equally dangerous and unrideable trail! which he named "Into the Drop-in". So, you can see that the business of submitting and naming just any and all trails no matter how unsuitable, continues apace. And merely changing a trail to be a dotted line, isn't solving anything.

 It was actually just a "regular" user/rider who changed it to be a hiking primary trail (which makes it a dashed line to MTB). Anyone can edit the trail...

At the end of the day we're all in control of what we ride or chose not to ride. Whether its a dashed line or even no line, people will still make silly choices. Or maybe they just want an adventure.

If its truly not meant for bikes, then someone can edit the trail and uncheck the bike activities from it.
