That looks familiar, we've been on plenty of tight trails like that. Don't know how bad they are until you're already committed.
I've turned around a couple of times but normally push through it, and beat the hell out of the machine in the process.
My first time on the trails I told my wife not to worry about the scratches she just put on the roll bars. We'll repaint them in the spring. 10,000 scratches later...

I bounced the passenger side roll bar and roof off of one of those banked turns with the tree on the inside. You can still see the scuff mark on the side of the roof, it hit hard. It'll do 50" trails but definitely takes a toll.

They actually maintain them at a 50" width +/- 1 or 2" :)
Really? So if there's two pines, like the ones I see in your video, that are say 8" in diameter with 50" or so between them, when those pines grow, it seems that the trail would narrow, unless they found a way to make trees only grow on one side, lol.

Maybe they reroute the trail around them if they get to narrow? I'll let you know if a few years. :)

Come on, if it falls over, you just pull it back up and move on.
Scratches are character!!
Dig deep and throttle!!
