The green trails were actually a bit more rocky than the blue trails. All trails were in reasonable condition.

      At the top of this trail there is a "wrong way" sign, meaning it's uphill only. Whuttt?

      Erosion has made this trail probably the most technical downhill run in the park. Lots of small to medium sized loose rocks and a section where the trail tread has been eroded into a deep v. Still not a very difficult trail but can catch you off guard if you're expecting another flow trail.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
