Mountain Biking Scarface Mountain

#126 of 302 mountain bike trails in New York

Wide and rooty singletrack with a few short climbs. This trail doesn't really look like a mountain
bike trail but we got the description from the NY Falcon Guide and decided to check it out. We
actually saw another rider out on the trail, always a good sign. Once we got past the first climb
there were flies everywhere and we didn't want to stop long enough for them to swarm. At one of
the dead end trails I actually inhaled a fly and thought I was going to choke to death. Beautiful
scenery but so-so trail. You can camp at Meadowbrook for easy access to this trail. The photo
below with the nice singletrack is not too typical for this trail but I decided to post it since it
reminded me of a scene from Colorado.
