Description: The trail is a challenge mainly for it's distance. The first 4 or five mile section (riding the trail clockwise) is fairly technical, it then is a nice singletrack with a few short hills. It is very well marked, but bring water and food (none on the trail), the whole loop will take about 3 hours.

This trail can kick your butt...but look at my pictures. It's worth it.

Great trail, difficult at times. Great trial for S. Lousisiana.

LOOOOONG! It's 18 miles of nonstop a**whipping. From the South Landing trailhead north for 3-4 miles is the most technical/aerobically demanding of the whole trail. It eases up a bit after this until it turns back north at about mile 15. It's fairly technical throughout. With the length, I had trouble keeping my concentration toward the end. All-in-all....this trail rocks.

Similar Trail: I've not seen a trail like this one that someone can love one minute, then wish destruction by bulldozers on it the next.
