I see that this trail is open once more but still not sanctioned like our goal was to be for this trail. Anyways, the trail has not changed any from what it used to be besides the trail head is slightly different entering in the main trail (heading to the Big Dipper). All of the stunts have been removed, but it still has its technical stuff throughout the loop. A bit grown in at the trail head though, and the trailhead is also the exit as well (two way traffic before the the drop to the Big Dipper). All in all it is still lots of fun out there and muggy as well. Hurry FL winter!!!

Great trail. smooth flowing and some super fun dips thanks to the guys who help maintain this place. (although palm bay has better dips) If you follow the path its a good 45 minute ride. the review below must have made a wrong turn. However with all the rain it is a little overgrown. This is Lee Baggets Favorite on Florida's east coast by far, But I'v seen him eat it on a few of the dips. Ha Ha* Review edited 9/6/2009

You know ,, I found the airborne website and petitioned to not have the trail closed. that was before i went out there. Closed or not I have been bleeding myself on the roads so I went for the trail in hopes of getting dirty. There is one section they have posted off in red makers that was decent enough,, but the rest of the trail is just grassy boulevards that lead no where. I just moved from Missouri to Florida. The riding here is naturally,, lacking in my taste,, but I am making the best of it. over all if they get this trail back open,, its worth if if your into a ride through grassy fields,, it was a decent enough workout ill give them that... Oh,, and i spent nearly an hour trying to find the entrance..

The airbornemtb club is working real hard with the land owners, elected officials, the county, and other agencies to get this trail re-opened as a sanctioned MTB trail. Just a few more red tape barriers to get through with the government and it will be back. Of course the trail will have to be cleaned and re-established from overgrowth from sitting with out any use. Not a problem their, trail crews ready to do the job when the trail is re-opened.

This Trail is great. Perfect trail if you live in stuart, ft.pierce or port st lucie. Good mix of cross country and tech stuff. Unfortunately closed...

Awesome trail, but now CLOSED! It will be sorely missed.

Similar Trail: Alafia, Santos, Balm Boyette, & "Hochi Min" at Turkey Creek

Awesome trail! It should not be closed! Have noticed things slowly disappearing though!
