Some Mud, Fallen Trees - These trails need maintenance. Nevertheless, they are a lot of fun! There are some wet sections, but they are mostly drainage History

“Climb out of Salt Rock Gap up to Blackrock Mountain on a steepish, rooty/rocky section. Lots of fun!”

Description

Take a short ride up to Blackrock Mountain or make this part of a longer Panthertown Loop. This section is all singletrack and will remind you of Pisgah. Maybe not blue/black but it feels like it at the end of a longer loop.
