      The lake side of this trail is super fun, but the non-lake side is an overgrown, twisty, muddy mess that is hard to find any flow on in all but the driest conditions. Doing a full loop of the trails, I would skip the non-lake side and ride the lake side both ways.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
