A very popular loop within the Schaeffer Farm trail system. several sections have recently been rerouted to improve flow and get out of wet spots. A few sustained climbs.
Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Black Rating: Advanced obstacles exist, some trail obstructions.
Mostly good. Some spots have a narrow rooty bench with spotting recommended. Rolling off the bench would be downslope and unpleasant, but it's not a cliff. Assessed by Lucian on Bomber and Mark on a Trike.
