This trail has a lot of potential, but is currently in horrible condition. There were large trees down everywhere, and it appeared some had been there a while. A little love and this would be a completely different experience
Very dense woods and very, very humid. They did a good job packing as much mileage as possible into limited space, but that means the trail doubles back on itself so much it makes you dizzy. Layout seemed pretty random as to use of terrain, especially when contouring vs. dropping in and out of drainages. Some bits are fun and some just seem disruptive. It's definitely a nice amenity for the Tupelo area, and the rest of the state park is quite nice as well.
In Austin most trails are limestone rock, dirt, and a fair share of trees. Tombigbee was a nice chance of pace - fast on the corners, great climbs and downhills... but you gotta watch for the ticks (I've noticed this more in MS than any other state I've ridden)

Thank |Fast and flowing with short puncy climbs.
