Looks doable again. You can at least see the trail now. Bottom is super washed out. small bridge is partially burned and broken but still there.

Totally overgrown and blown out, unrideable and hard to even follow unless your walking. Would be nice to reclaim it from nature when Sullivan...

      Too steep and loose for me. Need to build up more skills!

      Like descending down a prior landslide. Fun if you like steep and loose, treacherous otherwise.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
