Features are worn and need a refresh.
Most of the leaves are clear on the loop. Most of the berms and jumps need rebuilding as they are worn down.
If you're within riding distance, you're gonna love this place. I'll never forget hearing some slow old guys talk about how the place is too small too get a good ride in as they walked their bikes up a hill, so if you don't like looking on the bright side this place might not be for you. But otherwise, the great sessionable jumpline, the fact you'll always meet friendly fellow riders (hikers too), and the great loops and skill building opportunities make this place a gem even if it isn't a distant destination like some. Ride on!
