      Fun, flowy trail. This trail is a relatively mild intermediate trail.

      Have no idea whether we missed a turn or what happened but we got off this trail and got super lost. Took us hours to find our way back. Was all incredibly overgrown. Not sure what happened.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
