Classic Capitol Forest longish loop. Wedekind trail from Fall Creek TH up to Porter. Upper Porter Trail to C-Line road. C-Line road to Crestline. Crestline to GL6. GL6 all the way down. Loop is close to 30 miles, but well worth the effort. This was the CF Classic XC course in 2015 and may well be again someday soon.

      This is the upper porter trail down hill part to the clear cut. I would consider this the best trail in the Capitol forest. It's a cruzier

      		Running absolutely perfect right now.

      		Overgrown vegetation throughout, especially up top and in the last couple miles at the bottom where things flatten out (which has also become a little boggy). All that said, the wildflowers are absolutely spectacular right now!

      		Had a lot of fun riding the lower section of the trail. A few slick spots but all part of the fun.
