A mountain bike resting on a rocky outcrop, overlooking a vast grassy landscape with distant trees and a cloudy sky. The scene captures a natural trail leading down from the rocks toward the open fields. Maxwell

Getting there
go to the road directly south of hughes stadium and ride west on it to the base of the foothills. from there ride north directly along the foothills, if you notice yourself going east at all you are going the wrong way, but it is easy to find your way back. continue on the trail as it climbs up the foothill onto a saddle a bit below the highest part of the hill. once there follow the trail as it curves south (left) up through a grassy meadow. the trail will eventually turn left and dissapear over the edge on the hill. the next .25 miles are in every way nice... downhill, rocky, on this trail you will leave some flesh behind. anyway, after the downhill turn right to run back to town, or turn left back onto the trail you started on. i suggest going left and looping the trail 6 or 7... hundred times. i do, have fun.
