    		Amazing dirt, some of the moto ruts had large puddles in them but other than that couldn't ask for better conditions. Some bits in the second half where there's a narrow rutt are annoying as it's quite hard to steer, but most of it is wide enough to fit rider +bike and have room to spare. Quite technically challenging at parts, wouldn't want to ride in the dry.

    		the view at the top is amazing, but boy does it suck to push your bike up this thing. some sections where you can get above the rut and push from the side but most of it is pushing from behind in a deep and dry rut. Heading north on Juniper ridge is possibly a better option, but only because it is slightly wider (still looks like it would be pretty miserable)
