Mountain Bike

Nice rolling single track with many steep sustained climbs and fun flawy downhills. No technical features but good fitness is needed. If you do all the climbs and loops can get in over 20 miles and almost 4000 ft of climbing. The trail is very pump able and best on a hard tail Courtesy of Singletracks.com

Never modify trail features. Ride trails when they're dry enough that you won't leave ruts. Speak up when you see others on the trail and always yield to hikers, horses, and others coming uphill. Always ride on the established trail.
