Did a bike loop from top Tunnel, east and down Cold Spring North, back Gibraltar and up Angostura. The Gibraltar portion from Cold Spring to about 1/2 mile east of Sunbird was really tough going. It is getting very overgrown, the landslides are worse, and parts are now really a slog. There is less poison oak on Gibraltar than lower Cold Spring below Forbush, but you still will be pushing through some nice thickets of the 3 leaf devil.  Given that the Gibraltar trail used to be a road it is still pretty easy to follow, we got sidetracked only once and for less than 5 minutes. Still, i would say my 14 year old and i were riding only 1/3 the time, the rest was spent pushing though brush. Better riders will get more saddle time. Wish this trail was more open as it links so many potential great rides, but its tough going now.Â
