      Pretty rough shape right now after the monsoons. Seems like the trail may be meant for a more natural, rough feel, which is fine with me since the rest of the system is so groomed.

      Just as much uphill as downhill. So boring. By far the biggest waste of a climb in this entire system.

      Most of the trail was green difficulty. But I disagree with a few other comments saying the trail was all green. A lot of blue difficulty mixed in. And I thought there were two or three definitely black features. I'm not talking about the clearly marked "More Difficult" alternate lines, those were double black options, IMO.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
