The most difficult aspect of these trails were the steep declines and inclines which I found the tires held up well. The rear tired didn't spin out when climbing the steep incline nor did they slide on the decline. The disc brakes worked great too and I found it really easy to control the decent.

The front suspension was put to the test riding some of the thinner trails that were covered in roots and slippery wet leaves. They worked great!

I tried to takes as much pics as possible but again due to the low quality, you can't really scale the level of the trails: http://imgur.com/a/Vo6yr#12

I plan to go with an GoPro HD or ContourHD next time (depending on which I decide to get).
