Some COOL Cave & Boulders!

Boulders you drive in between. And a Cave.
Trail is not too difficult. Several spots a beginner may need help spotting.
Mud holes if you want to get stuck.
Trail 20 is a good trail. I recommend this path if you are lookign for good ride.
Starting at lower 19 (not shown). (will retake pic to show)
20 Up, 31 down, 21 up, 20 down.

Trail 26 By-Pass and unmarked roads.
Trail 2 is a very nice ride. But to the unknown, you have to go up trail 26. The first 1/2 of 26 is experienced riders only. It is a large mountain climb with several challenging switchbacks and hill climbs.
BUT... There is a gravel road bypass.
BYPASS - Once at end of #2 & bottom #26 you will see a white church. Continue on out and to the left. You will see a gravel road. That will take you to the 1/2 way point on 26 and will bypass the difficult sections. Rest of 26 is easy.
23 & 13 are NOT a dead ends, It is just a road not part of the system. You can see the added roads.

I cleaned up this thread for 2018. Info remains the same.

MOST IMPORTANT INFO
  • The lower 1/2 of trail 26 is not passable. There is a dirt road bypass that goes from trail 2 at the church 1/2 way up to 26. Take this to pass all the hard spots in 26. *see picture above.
  • Off of 26, Trail 23 DOES connect to 19 via a gravel road.
  • In this same area, 13 DOES connect to 19 via a gravel road.
  • You CAN legally ride from the campground to the trail head at 13 for a easier start/finish.
  • You CAN legally ride from the campground to trail 10 on the road too.

That was last year 2017, had 8" rain 5 days before takeover and machines with 30"+ tires had fitted it so bad even they were flipping over and around.

In good condition on Trail 26 a P500 can barely pull 2nd gear, add mud it's 1st gear only and pray it doesn't spin out on the 43% incline switchback.
