Description:
Rode from Pine View Rd down into the canyon and then up Pinyon Flats Trail. The start of Palm Canyon was bladed into a fire road and material scraped back to "remediate" and re-create a trail bench. It's ugly, with large waterbars added that are not fun on a bike. This section of trail flows poorly. Beyond that part, the trail has been re-routed to avoid some of the steep sections where the alternate jump lines were. All of this is on the section of trail that runs through private property. Once through the gate the trail is same as always and in decent shape. Watch out for rocks sitting on the tread. Track has been updated to include re-routes.
