	May 28, 2022 @ 3:28pm May 28, 2022	Quite a few wet spots but stay on the trail and it’s not too bad.
	Apr 17, 2022 @ 3:42am Apr 17, 2022	Muddy sections, some long and deep to a foot
	Apr 23, 2021 @ 6:06pm Apr 23, 2021	Great condition - but... Mount Marlay green trails are the equivalent of Blue in SE Qld so be aware they are not groomed and smooth...
