Some turns can not be bermed/insloped because of soil type and invasive plant presence. This is an example of a mostly flat, low turn with a couple of nicks just outside the apex to prevent pooling of water on the surface.

Thorny rose and berry bushes dominate the uphill side of the "meadow".
Dense undergrowth through this section requires regular maintenance.

Photo contrast of ground cover where tree canopy prevents light from getting through. Opening in canopy facilitates germination of invasive plant growth.
Eventually the singletrack exits the tree tunnel and proceeds towards a reclaiming meadow. Hillside is not as steep and the sight lines tend to be best from fall-spring.
Last bit of shade before the meadow.
Virginia Stickseed (Hackelia virginiana), has minute spikes on its seed coat that adhere like velcro to most any fabric (or fur) at the slightest touch. Can cause itching.
Looking back into the tree tunnel, standing in the meadow on a small jump.
