Does anyone know the deal with this trail? this is the first i've ever seen it but was going to try it tomorrow 5/23/20

A hour can be taken off this time very easily. towards the end there is a huge flooded section, and I didn't know how to get around it. Wasted 1 hour and added 2 miles figuring it out

Planning on running this route on 02-19-2023.  I will do the one way starting Trailhead off of FR 3174 and ending at FR4155 at the West terminus of the trail.

Attempt to be rescheduled.  I did get to run the first part (eastern) of the trail and last past of the trail (western).  Time to scout, but not enough time to do a round trip.  Looks like the trail has been worked on quite a bit since the last attempt (FKT).   Trail is in good condition from what I saw.  No flooding.  Some branches down on trail, but no trees across the parts of the trail I was on.
