 If riding east to west this trail is a good quality vehicle access track for the first 5km after the turnoff from Black Mountain Rd. After passing...

 First 4km is under water with tall grass growth. Difficult to find the actual route. Streams are high with water and many trees down across track.

      *Typo edit above: Sams Hill should be Bells Hill

      Western section between from Borderline to Sams Hill very boggy, overgrown and not maintained. Better off combining the eastern section of the Lemon Track with the Brumbies track

      Pretty chopped up by motorbikes, not enjoyable ride, and I suspect the property owners are trying to discourage MX riders as there are a lot of dropped trees across the track
