It's a alright Trail for the area. If you like to ride fast,and sharp tech turn you will like it. Has some decent climbs and downhill with shap turn as you get to the bottom. Don't let this trail fool you it can thorw you if you don't respect it. Later

This really is a great trail for where it is located. It is mellow enough for beginers and technical enough for experts. It's all in your speed.

Easy riding. I live in Idaho, God's country for REAL mountain biking, but grew up in Valpo-Michigan city area. Bluhm is a cake walk for MTB-ing. Absolutely no elevation gains other than a few 50 meter baby climbs. Trails are excellent, however, for rip-tearing, all-out, full-throttle crank-mashing riding. Chances for injury are low. Basically, it's like riding in a farmers field with some trees.
