Land Owner
A fun, woodsy ride around a quaint little lake with some short climbs. Trail is rooty in sections. Some minor TTFs including stairs and a boardwalk (slippery when wet). Can be ridden in both directions, but is best to ride clockwise to minimize running head-on into a hiker.

Fallen tree near end of the trail and large roots the entire ride. Very steep hills too.
