Wait for it to be very dry. I rode here and while it was dry enough that I didn’t leave tracks my tires packed up with plenty of sticky mud. There are numerous stream crossings and just surface flow from further up hill so that’s what got me. The added weight made accelerating for the punchy climbs harder and braking suffered as well. The moisture made the roots very slippery and much off the trail is off camber. I walked when I saw standing water The upper section isn’t as technical as the lower. Flatter overall but very fun

Best to ride inter dry. The soils are very organic and fill up your tires even if it’s a little damp.
