Freshly groomed. Fun single track through the trees. I liked this one

Vegetation from the sides is growing fast and falling into the trail. Actual tail width remains the same but shoulder to crank vegetation at times...

When did flash floods go up hill? This is a down hill trail. There isn't many down hills in this area so why take from what the area has. The DG and Escalator climbs are great, heck if you want a tough climb try plumbers crack because thats at least a challenge. #flashflooddownhill
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
