      WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong
      Map is inaccurate and grading is completely dependent on trail section. All the way from green to some arguably double black lower peninsula trails. Ride with care and expect to figure it out yourself when you get there. I’ll try to add a better map to the photos soon once I finish my jump line and a friend of mine intends to add a map kiosk

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
