  • Same location. We're discussing the line. Users have recently (last couple years) dropped the original highside line to a lowside option.

  • Ed between C24 and C22 (23 is missing). As erosion "lifted" this root from the tread, riders went highside to avoid it.

  • At C21 we have this big rootball, then "The Root" as you continue westward. During my summer 2011 Cadillac and Loblolly maintenance, I figured a lowside bypass, H2O fix, and armor in place is called for.
