If anyone is interested and available, there is a corporate group doing TM at Sourlands this Thursday, June 26, 2025 9:00am-1:00pm. They plan to work on the new white trail reroute. I cannot be there, but there should be a large group.
 
@snashters was there and tells me they finished corridor clearing on the White Reroute (green line). Still will take a lot of work to get it good but if you're curious, it's not hard to find. Still not officially open though. Last I heard they're also trying to get the new Danbury Trail from Long Hill Rd to Chunky Monkey open for 4th of July weekend. If they do, I'll update Trailforks. I've ridden it and it's mediocre doubletrack mostly. Starts right about at the "530" on the map.

any potential for alt lines on that Danbury trail to spice it up?

New Danbury Trail from Long Hill Rd to Chunky Monkey grand opening now postponed to Fall.
 
thanks. I think i know those rocks. Is that near the intersection with Chunky Monkey that's closer to Pipeline?
That’s what it appears to me. Facing the part of the trail that goes to chunky/pipeline. This spot but from the other side.

Thanks. I was actually thinking of a different spot but i was close. Reported to Rangers. Also, how bad are the prickers? i haven't been down there in quite a while.

Not much overgrowth or thorny spots from what I rode. I did have to cut the ride short though and bail down the pipeline after a bike mechanical issue with one of the riders I was with
 
I can report some more trees down.
In addition to the tree reported on 7/26 there is a tree down on
-Lower Trail To Pipeline
-3 Amigos at the intersection of the Bouldering Area C Climb
-Center Connector Trail (right at the top)

besides that the conditions are fantastic. No sweating rocks today either.
