Glad I rode Elfin recently, before this trail stupidity happened. I really liked that rocky section, as I'm sure most of us did.

Needs a few good gully washers. You know long ago when it was ploughed it likely looked like it does now. It's fall line so all the water is going straight down it and I see nothing there to get water off the sides. In fact the rocks on the left seemed strategically placed not to let water off.

Tripe!
Thanks to Mountainbike Bill for coining the term.
http://www.mountainbikebill.com/blog/?p=687

Tripe (noun)

1. Lining of the stomach of a ruminant (especially a bovine) used as food.
2. A slang term synonymous with rubbish, in the sense of something of little value, or nonsense.
3. (see also San Elijo Trails)
