Description

This section of the Morgul Bismarck ride might be the most interesting technically. There are more rocks on this section, and a few ups and downs to keep things fun.

Beginning riders shouldn't fear - it's all relative, and nothing here would be considered anything more difficult than beginner terrain.

if you're into XC trails this is probably great, but personally I found it to be disappointing and a chore to ride - too many rocks on the ST.
