Not as much of a trail report as an obstacle report 
. I went back out to Lower Terminator at Table Mesa road N of Phoenix. As some of you may recall, I flopped there but don't know the name of that obstacle (below is the entrance). It was earlier in the year or late last year . 1452 beers ago 
These pics are not where I flopped on the trial but the (locally) infamous Z Turn. This is actually called the TERMINATOR obstacle, the hard line for a 3.5 trail. As For the flop obstacle, it is later down the trial and I failed again! Tore my sidewall...........my new trial nemesis.
Another great obstacle on this is called WHITE LINE, very off camber and there is a white line of caleche? some stone that runs throught the rock. If you follow the line, that is the best chance of making it through, although there is much paint and scraping down the wall you flop into if you miss the mark. There are probably a dozen obstacles on this trail, I just don't know all the names.
