Getting overgrown, especially the second half of the trail. Saw a forest service employee at the trailhead who said they’d try to get it brushed...

Pusher got a makeover. New trail work in the middle section is super fun. Lower section is caught in a freeze/thaw and is super slick/mushy

Perfect dirt, but the vegetation is starting to get a little overgrown and it’s hard to see the trail in certain sections
