Needs trail maintenance with chainsaw. About 21 trees down, small debris, and some overgrown areas.

      There was a no parking sign at the recommended parking location. I parked in the big parking lot near School and Main and rode up the hill. The trail is indeed a bit tricky to find, but drcamero's directions are very helpful.

      Would love to see Black Hole have a return connection to the top of Green Snake. Would also love to see Green Snake be single track top to bottom, as well. Epic trail as is, but would be potentially world class if it finished. Happy to help with the building, if someone knows who to contact.

      The single track is great. As mentioned, access is tricky. Wish I had more time to ride it over and over.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
