Absolutely garbage condition. Not worth riding until a lot of work is done. Lots of big trees down. Even the sections that were clear were super dry and the trail bed is full of lots of medium sized rocks.

The forest is taking this trail back. Too bad as it’s a nice way to do a loop back to truck.
