        This trial appears to be an old jeep road that has been washed out by weather and entropy. The ground is full of roots, rocks, and pine needles in various sections. There were several down trees but most of them were small and didn't require a dismount. The upper half of the trail is a slog. You'll be pushing your bike for a while, but there's really nice scenery along the way.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
