      The signage at the top is a bit confusing. Called Flanders in Trailforks, there is a sign which says Mezcalito near the beginning which branches off. Looks to be left over from the Trans Sierra Norte enduro event. Even though there was some branches across Flinders to encourage people to follow Mezcalito I opted for the Flanders branch. Great fun, a bit unmaintained but still 100% rideable as of August 2024.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
