Description

Tight, twisty singletrack. A great place to learn how to maintain momentum and work on your cornering skills. The trail can be ridden in either direction. The difficulty level is easy to moderate depending on the speed you are riding. There is a fair amount of elevation change so if you are riding with small children, the Coldwater River Nature trail below the dam may be a more suitable option.

Needs a little love. There was a man cleaning trail while I was there though, so that was nice to see. Lots of brush down and spider webs. 5mi — 1h 00m

It was a sloppfest, but could be really fun if it was dry. Didn't look like it had been ridden much this summer — 0h 42m
