Matias Connector Trail Survey - 07-16-2024 - by Anonymous Surveyor
Link: Matias Connector Trail
Date: 07-16-2024
Surveyor Name:Anonymous Surveyor
Trail description:Trail is 2.5 miles long between Matias Patrero and Arroyo Burro trail.

Trail is very overgrown in most spots with several very large washed out sections. 100% not passable with a bike. Hiking through this section will have you shoulder deep in branches and grass in many spots, but the trail is visible in most areas. Be ready to push through some not so fun sections. Pants, gaiters, and long sleeves are a must.
Mode of transport:Hike
Trail condition:Hard to follow
Condition details:Overgrown but passable.
