Slow, technical, fun single track the whole way. There are many short loops and it is possible to go around the pond, but beware hicking is required because even in a drought it is muddy. Be prepared for some mud because the first 30 feet is a deep stream crossing before going up a short hill. after that the terrain is basiclly undualting the whole way.
