The rock waterfall is extremely to rutted out now leaving only one or two lines available and the ending of the waterfall is a 3 foot drop now.

      lol. The ruts are definitely getting worse, what planet are you guys on. Still rideable, but much worse than it was 2, 5, 10 years ago.

      Ruts are no worse than they’ve been since I’ve been riding here for the last few years. It’s running great!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
