Four Hour Firecracker Race at Falling Creek Park July 2nd

Great single track. Rooty, rocky, some downed limbs. Some excavator disturbance that looks like it is being done for downed tree clearing and/or illegal trash dumping - could be old farm trash too. Great switchbacks and connection to Ridge Line.
