Singletrack that would be fun if it weren't for the lacerating weeds and poor terrain.

Need to Know

WARNING: Watch out for tall weeds with a purple bulb and large thorns. These thorns will easily penetrate your clothing and cut you if you pass by them. I've visited this trail about four times and they've only been present once.

Description

Mudstone Ranch has a tendency to get run over by weeds and this trail is definitely susceptible to that. When the weeds aren't slapping you from both sides of the trail, the next thing you'll notice is the dry, loose and very bumpy terrain. I've heard this is due to the machine that they use to clear the trail of weeds. It produces very rough terrain.

In certain sections, butterflies will occupy the crevices in the ground and the weeds and fly up as you approach them, further adding to the difficulties of the trail.

If the weeds and the terrain could be addressed, this trail would actually be pretty decent. However, the thorny weeds make it a very unpleasant experience.
