Trail Quarry Descent
Trail is blocked by loads of fallen trees, take a big saw if you're brave enough to go.

Log bridges Chicken wire is torn up & they are very greasy, go cautiously. Also tree down over trail before the Yair man junction. Rest of the trail is spot on.

A bit too janky for my liking, much prefer the "Yair Man" descent to this full run

Trail Head Over Heels
Probably the best part of the black trail. Huge amounts of effort for a tiny bit of decent downhill.

Trail Head Over Heels
Pretty tight, and fairly technical in the wet.
