Route aimed at riding all trails on trail forks. I started from the Big Eddy Side, into logging left overs, so starting from the parking lot would add a bit to it. I also didn't do the middle Bike Club as it's still listed as closed, but I did route it back up to do Snakes and Ladders, which isn't on trail forks, but allows you to do lower Iron Lotus than back over to Lower Boondocker.
