Great forest ride. The Upper Outer Loop can be greasy after a rain or early in the season. It has bridges over the worst 2 areas. The rest of the trail handle rain and thawing very well. No mud Great early season Trail.

Tree #6+7. The ones on the ground are no issue but the nasty leaner might need a pro.
