Numerous trees have cleared off the trail. Lots of cones and small branches on the running surface, but all clear otherwise.

Trail is no longer worth riding and has all but been abandoned. Many trees down, bridges are broken and it is slowly being reclaimed by the forest.

There are trees down. Not a very fun trail as it is just fall line. I think it is better to just use the more fun Satellite trail.
