Description: the trails i've ridden out there are some of the most technical trails i've ever ridden especially the one that goes to the waterfall. the one that runs the ridge on the south is killer, it's fast hard packed dirt and used by some light vehicles. most of the trails are hard packed old trails or a combo of animal or vehicle trails you can email me questions if you want

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

Tons of uphill! I just rode this trail on 11/14/08 and there are a lot of leaves on the trail which made for decreased traction, especially on the uphills. The trail is supposedely over 70 miles but I only made it about 12 starting from the first trail head, near the park entrance, for Gerard hiking trail. The sun was setting fast and luckily there are many areas to get back to a road which provides easy access back to the beginning. There are quite a few wooden bridge crossings and steps obviously made for hikers with little to no trany which makes the trail technical. Take tons of water and go early to see how far you can get.

This is actually the Gerard hiking trail and it is against park rules to be on the trial in anything other then shoes. It is off limits to bikes. It's a great hike though.
