The mountain biking association [http://ntmba.org/ SORBA Tri-Cities] handles the trail maintenance, thus generally in good condition.  While there are no blazes to guide you through the forest, the narrow single tracks are well established.  Grab a trail map at the parking lot kiosk to help you decipher intersections; some which could use signs.  Be aware for approaching bike riders who can come up quickly on your group.  Step aside to let them safely pass.
