There are some of those in the US as well.  Here's a story on the
history of an ordinarily mysterious one, which I found entertaining:

Thanks.  Interesting detective story.  It took me over and hour to
read because the phone kept ringing.
 
There's also a bicycle related connection that starts at "IS IT A
REGULATION?"  The stairs were designed to have ramps that are the
width of bicycle tires to make it easier to push bicycles up the
stairs.  Click on the tiny "note" for details.
 

 
Are some old ?bike friendly? steps etc with those in the vague area,
definitely something that requires someone to either have nice light bike
or be fairly large and strong!
 
<https://maps.app.goo.gl/zuNZrLTTY4Pd6XY48> is okay in a doable way on the
Gravel bike, MTB tyres are too fat! And utility bikes are bit of pig to
manoeuvre up similar setups definitely subpar infrastructure!

Roger, poor Jeff knows nothing first person and you cannot trust one word he writes.

I agree.  You should not trust anything I say without corroboration or
verification:
"Trust, but verify".
Unsubstantiated claims by Tom (and others) also require verification.

Remember that he will argue at the drop of a hat that I was lying and that there was no mud in Cull Canyon last winter.

I've asked you multiple times for a photo of the mud.  You've
supposedly ridden you bicycle past that point numerous times without
so much as a photo.  This is the only photo you've posted.  I can see
the sign, but where is the mud?  Do you really ride in the mud or do
you ride on the paved bicycle path?

That the mud didn't wash down and fill the reservoir behind the dam and then bypass the entire reservoir and cut a new channel down to the overflow bypass. As PROOF he showed a picture of the swimming area that you could SEE was filling with mud itself.

I posted reservoir photo to point out that the reservoir wasn't very
deep.  I saw nothing that looked like a bypass or "deep mud" (except
the sign).
