tight trail that has some danger spots that you have to keep an eye out for oncoming traffic. If you like to ride fast, probably best to avoid. — 1h 00m

The last one way section of the trail heading west is quite muddy, best to avoid I dumped on 2 climbs and 1 corner due entirely to mud I didn't see…
