    Hard to find. Not taken care of. I saw several "no trespassing" signs and "Do Not Enter...Leased Land" signs.

    I am trying to get this trail back up to where it ought to be. The Corps has taken the trail back over (it's no long a National Recreation Trail) and is willing to work with me. If you wish to help, please contact me at [email protected].

    Last time I biked this trail from the west, you started on the north side of the river at US 66, followed the road under the turnpike to the trail, and after a while, swam across where a bridge used to be.* Review edited 6/3/2009

    Impassable @ Ft Gibson trailhead because extremely overgrown/neglected. Couldn't get more than 100 yds from trailhead.

    The trail head at Ft Gibson is unpassable with thick growth and no definite trail. I tarted on a bike and was only able to go 1/4 mile before having to cross a downed tree, shortly thereafter tall cane
