Riding is good technical rocky singletrack. I rode the red trail starting from the dam and had a blast. Expected it to be a bit more difficult compared to other reviews. Definitely worth checking out

i should have brought a bulldozer instead of a mountain bike. there's enough rocks on the trail to trip a grizzly bear.
