Notes:
The Water Treatment Plant Northern Descent is a single trail that runs from the Water Treatment Plan Descent down into the valley northern of the plant and meets up with the Northern Loop at a rock bridge.
The first section is relatively flat and quite tight before the track starts to descend. While only short, its a good descent into the valley and has a small rock drop just before a rock bridge. (note the 2nd go on the video).
From there you can either continue along the Northern Loop and out along The Bottom Trail or Fullers Rd Reserve Bike Path alternatively head back up the trail for a nice technical climb. It's a little more difficult than the Water Treatment Plant Descent.
Personally if riding this trail I wouldn't miss the ride out and back along the The Bottom Trail as well.
