      Sooooo I crashed pretty good on my ride, caught a rock, got off line and was a close to the edge, bike went for a ride without me. BUT what a nice trail, was went and muddy in that area I wiped out, but the more experienced rider I was with handled it with ease... I didn’t attempt the second log jump as the landing requires a technique I don’t currently poses. All in all a good trail to ride
