Trail will likely need a reroute and chainsaw work. The root ball is totally ripped up and ripped the entire trail tread along with it.

      Good little XC trail. There’s a lot of other random trails people built around it but it’s all mainly just switchbacks at the top of the descent before BRP and the rest of Baker’s ridge. The coolest thing here was a seesaw but that was it’s only feature

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
