TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by GoldenGoose on July 20, 2010
Lots of doubletrack that has overgrown into singletrack in some areas. Currently listed as 223E on Forest Service markers. No matter which direction you ride this one, you are in for some tough climbs and if the soil isn't dry, those "tough" climbs can become fearsome. Has a short connector trail at the halfway point that allows you to cut over to the Moss Creek trail or bail out onto FS28-1. No real need for that though, bailouts are for the weak!!! Unfortunately, it looks like this trail gets some action from the horses on a regular basis. Starts directly across from the entrance to Bull Mt trail and eventually dumps you into the Turner Creek/Nimblewill Trail.

Similar Trail: Feels a lot like the Jake Mt trail, not sure I would actually "recommend" that one though.

climb up the sweet section of turner creek trails and come down the jones creek trail for a really sweet, all-singletrack loop with a killer climb and sick descent!

one of the nicer pieces of trail in the bull mountain area... and a sweet descent!!

Good trail but short. At the fork in the singletrack (marked 1J) take the left fork - the right just spits you out at the forest road. Connects Bull Mountain to Turner Creek trails.

Would recommend doing this trail as part of the larger 11 mile Bull Mountain loop. The climb is pretty brutal, but the view and descent more than make up for it.

Actually, I was there to climb the Bull Mountain trail, but a wrong left turn and here I was... Did not wanted to come back, so I kept going. Made it a 11mi. loop going up the trail parallel to FS-77, Left on 77A and down the whoop-the-doos. Had to walk for the tough climbs, specially going up on the trail left to FS-77. Since most of the time, we were on gravel roads instead of single tracks, I didn't enjoy it that much. But, I'll definitely have to go back to do the Bull Mountain some day.
