    Thinking of coming along, looks like this is a fairly easy trail in general, any difficult spots without a bypass that would disqualify my GC?

    Going to Storm Mountain, FSR 153, has ?a couple? somewhat difficult spots that are on the main trail. At the end of the trail is a totally optional obstacle that is the most difficult spot for the 153 trail.

    From what I visited last, the eastern trails were quite easy (and decently scenic).

    If folks wish to push back on time a bit, I'm flexible.

    The GC has done moderate trails like Argentine and Kingston so it sounds like it may be ok.

    From my poor memory, I'd say the difficult spots for what I've been on at Storm are at most equal to the difficulty of the Argentine / Kingston difficult spots. You should be good to go!
