      There is a very large tree down that significantly blocks the path for a good 20+ metres on the descent just before the junction with Oh Chute. It was quite hard to get past.
      Otherwise the descent was fun and the climb as expected given 250 odd metres of elevation.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
