I don't ride the red trails off of blue/green very often, but a while back I did and noticed that this feature had either been removed or the trail had been re-routed. Same goes for the zig-zag skinny that sat real close to the ground.

I rode red again recently and I got to wondering what happened. I figured someone on here would know. Any chance these will find their way back into the rotation? Are there other features that have fallen victim to storms/reroutes and/or dismantling?

I can't speak to this feature specifically as I don remember, but I can tell you the several of us took out a few features during a storm clean up this spring. The features were poorly built and/or rotting. Essentially they were very unsafe.

yep, much of it was falling apart

the zig zag is still there but got routed around when a huge cluster of trees fell during the past storms

hopefully we'll get some work done in there this fall/winter to add back some tech features of some sort

The challenge will be making those features fun and sustainable.
