Running OK. A little overgrown but manageable, consider long sleeves. 1 fallen tree. Still a fun descent.

Rode this 5/3/24. Was able to clear all the downed trees except for one, lower down. It was too big for my hand saw but isn't hard to hop over. ...

About 6 large downed trees throughout. Pretty annoying to carry a bike over and some where pretty big. I'd pass on this one until it can be cleared.
