	3 Sisters / Alderfer in Evergreen, Colorado First off, there are two parking areas for this trail. I would suggest parking at the first one you see if it's not full. This makes your ride an up and down rather than a down then up. This trail is actually a 'dumbell' sh...

	Arabia Mountain Trail in Lithonia, Georgia Don't let the name fool you: this isn't a trail at all - it's a concrete greenway route. Even so, it's a very scenic greenway route through some pretty remote areas where you're sure to see wildlife any time of year. At one point ...

	Baker Creek in McCormick, South Carolina "I've never been to these trails but I would imagine they are similar to Turkey Creek and Horn Creek. Please review this trail to give a better description.
	Bald Eagle in Greensboro, North Carolina This trail is pretty tight but VERY rooty. This trail seems to be very overused and tends to get very wet after it rains. Good workout but be prepared to be shaken til you can't shake no more.
