    Nice track. Well marked trails. Adventurous for me and my 12 yo. Some good hills and down hills. 10' to maybe 20' down and back up. Good workout :)

    Second group of reviews on the hiking trails on a mountain bike site...strange. Anyway its 100% changed/new any reviews pre 2017 no longer apply and none of the photos are from the mountain bike trails (I added some new ones) several miles of tight twisty single track constantly going up and down rollers and steep chutes. The trail has several optional log piles and skinnies and new ones pop up after every scheduled work day. I think its only 9-10 miles of trail but feels like much more and you can run loops in either direction then link it together in a figure eight getting 15-17 that feel completely different. Really amazing what they have done with limited space and elevation.

    All around fun ride. Not too difficult to navigate the different trails. There are a good amount of steep hills, some have steps out of composite wood which makes them very slippery. Throw in some sandy sections for a killer leg workout.

    Sandy, not well kept and all the fun bits are covered in stairs. Yes you can ride a bike there, should you? No. I probably will ride it again just because of how close I now live, but I'm not happy about it

    Not bad, sandy and flat. Biggest complaint is that almost all the "hills" have plastic stairs built in, making them more difficult than they need to be since there aren't good ways to go around them.

    I did this trail and it was a very rough ride. Not well maintained. Tree limbs are abundant above and below. Very challenging hills and some very steep. It takes a little to get used to but I would ride it again, and again.

    Great course; even though the trails meet for hikers and bikers. Plenty of hill, decent grades, deadman Cliff, couple spots where you can pick up some speed. Overall good course
