        There are minimal loose rocks on the single track, and as there is not much overhanging vegetation, the track is easily defined. Care is required to maintain traction on the dry, loose
        sandy soil on steep uphill sections.
        EvKH
        Trail is steep single track, can be ridden fully in both directions, either way, down to creek crossing in middle and up other side. Approaching the creek from west side, there is a steep Aline straight down, and B line to right side.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
