Description: From the gate entrance you will see trail B on your left then trail A just a tad futher on your right. Start trail A and follow trail and markers around to the boat ramp (at the end of gravel road). When you reach the boat ramp turn left up the hill and on your right begans trail B it will loop around and finish back at the gate. One note on trail B you will cross a gravel road and at one point you must take the road to the right and reenter the trail to the left at a cable gate near a main road. There are a few north shore style jumps on trail A and a few short steep climbs but other than that it's fast and fun. With recent trail work and moderant riding the trail is in very good condition, with some nice lake side views. More trail is being opened in coming months..

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by theonlywanderer on July 3, 2011
In it's current state, it's rugged and overgrown. Has lots of potential though, but needs a major overhaul to be something more then a kids bmx woods trail. None of the ratings really fit, it's a mixture of the middle three.
Similar Trail: Tipsaw Lake in Indiana (when it's cleaned up) would be an example of what this trail could be like with some effort. Right now Tipsaw is in rough shape.

Trail A was a somewhat challenging course. A couple nice jumps at the start. The lake made for some good scenery. Due to the recent ice storm there were a couple of spots with large trees down on the track. Other then that the trail is is a clear ride. Trail B is much longer and more challenging but has some cool features . Overall it was a lot of fun.

Trail A is fast and fun. It has a few climbs but nothing to hard. It has a few ramps @ the first part. You could see the storm damage, but it all cleaned up now. Trail B is a little harder. It has several difficult climbs right @ the beginning, but gets a little faster on the second half.
