The Trail Blazer is mainly riding soil. I've done it in pouring rain for 2 days and the drainage there is incredible. My favourite ride but I can't make it so already penciled in the July and September dates.

Oh ok. Track looks awsome still hope it dosnt rain though.

Are there any water crossings?

Not that I recall and I've done both sides twice.

we are going...... Did Pumice 2 years ago (think it was that long ago) and it was a massive bog but it was flooding everywhere. But to be fair I am not the best in any wet conditions!
