Description

The main loop consists of smooth, nicely flowing singletrack with plenty of banked turns. It's nearly impossible to get lost - just follow the marked trail until you get back to the parking lot.

There's an optional Inner Loop that branches off this loop - take that trail if you want a bit more of a technical challenge to keep things interesting.

Conditions were really beautiful - just the right amount of damp to tack the tires through the bendies but not much deep mud. — 1h 20m

Great trail. Definitely not for beginners. Quite a bit of climbing. Bring plenty of water. If you want something easy, go to cedarville
