So I finely downloaded some of my pictures of my trip out to Maryland.  The only way to describe most of the trails is rocks w/ a little bit of dirt in between.  I road WISP ski resort and the Maryland watershed, unfortunately I didn't bring a camera to WISP.  The pictures I did get are from the blue trail (XC), Evolution (expert DH), and Wayne's Mom (DH/FR).  I wish I could have got more pictures but Its hard to stop in the middle of a super fast and technical DH run that only lasts for 15min or so.  Enjoy!

This is what they call XC out in the East Cost  




Here are some of the bigger jumps on Waynes Mom.  This was the more freeride oriented trail of all the DH runs.






Probably the smallest jump on Waynes Mom.






The last pictures are from Evolution.  I had to walk down the trail to get most of the pictures for this one, unfortunately the pictures don't do this trail justice at all.
It starts out pretty tame, and flowing




Then it all goes to hell after this rock drop  










Here's the end of Evolution and the only pictures I got w/ people riding down it.




What goes down must come up.

Im liking the 2007 Iron Horse Sunday Expert with the pink dual crown forks   I almost bought that bike.  Its funny, those trails look ALOT like the trails I rode today.  Most people think Oklahoma is flat, but around Tulsa, that is not the case.  The trails are SUPER rocky and rooty and very technical.  It was alot of fun, but there was no freeride stuff   boo.

That's an awesome rock drop on Evolution.  That looks like my kind of trail!
