How technical? Guess it depends on what you are used to riding and what your skill level is. Where do you usually ride?
It's been a while since I've been there, but I'd describe the trails like this: short sort of steep ups and downs, mostly dirt with some roots and rocks thrown in. Sections used to have a lot of waterbars but they are supposed to be reworking a bunch of the trails so some of that may be gone.
I think most riders would call them moderately technical at best, but I tend to ride a lot of technical stuff so that always skews my perspective. I wouldn't take a brand new rider there but if you've been MTBing for a bit you should be fine.

i concur. my reference point is Fairhill where i do most of my riding, and i wouldn't describe that as technical either. Susquehanna does have a couple of decent hills for this part of the country.riderx said:
there's also Gun Powder Falls (near Susquehanna). Never been there, don't know what it's like. And of course Potapsco (how ever you spell that) near Baltimore (hour drive) ranges from mello-with-hills (west) to more technical than this old guy is willing to try (east).
