Looks like a cool course. That terrain is very different from what I ride.

couple drop offs, well very steep ride downs, stairs like 12" high each one, nice thing about the venue is the top half off the course is that harpack moonscape terrain and then the bottom half is through dense pine forest with nice soft loamy soil, mainly singletrack, always one of my favourite vanues, unfortunately I had to miss this race as have been too sick for too long.
