Description: Hard to believe I am the one adding this trail since I was visiting when I rode it. As a result, I am no expert on the trail system, but I rode Yucca, Porta Potty, Christmas Tree and Christmas Tree Extension, and 10 Bridges. None were extremely difficult, but had some fun sections to keep you on your toes. There seems to be lots of natural rock gardens with sharp, jagged rock. There were several creek crossings, some with rock bridges you could cross on. A few simple log piles for good measure. All and all, a fun network of trails from what I experienced, but you do have to be a C.A.R.P club member ($15 annual membership) and sign in and out since it is at Camp Robinson, which is a National Guard base in North Little Rock.

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by delphinide on June 12, 2011
Where are all of the Arkansas trail reviews? This trail system is a salient example of a local club, CARP, working diligently to build and maintain sweet singletrack on public/govt land. Unfortunately, part of that union means losing trail when the National Guard needs more space (R.I.P. Berm trail). Nevertheless, this is the quintessential central Arkansas trail system with 40+ miles of singletrack. Some are smooth and winding. Others are packed full of goat heads and death cookies. There is a lot of climbing out here, and a lot of rocks, roots, and river crossings. Expect wildlife encounters with many dear and some suicidal squirrels. Hunters are also allowed during bow, musket, and rifle seasons, so beware. Don't wear camo or put antlers on your bike. After 9/11, it has become more difficult to gain access (CARP membership, checkin, etc..), but all that adds no more than 5 minutes to what will be hours of fun on your bike. These trails are not easy...in fact, some of them are very techy, especially when those rocks and roots get wet. Support CARP and keep these trails going...this is some of the sweetest singletrack you can find so close to a metro area.

An awesome network of trails with something for everyone. Would give it a 5 if access was a bit easier.
