Mike & Marlene to Lower Carnage aka “Hurricane Run” – Brandywine Creek State Park, DE [FTR Series]

Mike & Marlene to Lower Carnage is a technical and fun enduro run at Brandywine Creek State Park in Delaware. I must admit, it’s confusing to find since it’s labeled differently on Trailforks and Strava, and to make matters worse, the locals have their own naming scheme, lol. But regardless of what you call it, these trails will keep you on your toes with a smile on your face. So go grab your mountain bike and get ready to rip. Trail Detail: If you are looking for Mike and Marlene you won’t find it on the map. But if you are lucky enough to run into some locals they will know how to get you there. Looking at Trailforks it looks like it is part of the “Hurricane Run”. And if you are on Strava, it looks like it is called “Three Drops”. Lower Carnage as it is labeled on Strava, looks to be a part of “Left Anterior Descending” on Trailforks, but it’s hard to tell. This trail starts off with a tough rock garden followed up with some tricky root sections. You will definitely have to be on the pedals through here if you want to keep any sort of momentum. At the end you will be at the bottom of Hunter Stand. The bonus footage is from the Concord Pike trail and is a fun fast rip back to the hotel parking lot.
