This is an old school flow single track. It crosses over the main atv trail several times at the beginning. Follow the red arrows to indicate direction. It’s a great line to get you right into the front entrance to Deering.

What was old is new again! Fantastic job injecting some juice into what used to be a pretty "meh" way to connect the two sides. Really fun trail.
