Description: Hardpack singletrack for your big chainring that winds through Minnesota River floodplain. Hardly any elevation gain. Several bridges look sketchy but are sturdy. There are several whoops and log-overs. Lush vegetation makes for some blind corners; watch for hikers and other bikers. There is a portage on a raft over Nine Mile Creek. Trail connects with River Valley Rover Trail on the east side of I-35W. Prone to flooding.

Very fun to ride, as the discription stated it is in the flood plain so more then half gets flooded in the spring. I did not ride it this fall but know that it is probibly dry by then so it might be better. I would recomend wearing some bug spray durring the summer.

Itchweed has overgrown much of the trail. Without Long Pants its Miserable. The trail is not maintained. The trail Covers a floodplain so you need very aggresive tires to stay afloat of the mud in quite a few areas. The trail is NOT hardpack.
