Trail Description:
Long established private property, now a public King county park. The IMBA afilatte BBTC MTB club has lobbied for 3 yrs to insure that it will remain a bike freindly area with sucess.

BBTC trail improments have begun April 24 1999 National Trails day with a KC park land manager. More Trail improvments,Reroutes and new trails are planned, they need riders to help out with improvments to make the park a even better area.

A gravel road that follows the Issy Creek leads to the main trail that climbs up with 3 options, the easyest is to keep left untill you reach the power line, take a r' and try and find the loop (maps in Zilly's book Kissing the trail). There are quite a few trails left, but beware of the development area, where as in most privite property you trespass at your own risk. This place has and can be great with improvments. It is opened year round and has a rocky surface. Lots of climbing we hope to add switch back to reduce the climbing so more riders can enjoy the trails.

How to get there:
Easy access of of I-90 exit 20 across form hiker heven east tiger mt in Issaquah, 10 min from seattle, dirt parking lot but beware of break in's. Many Grand Ridge Vets park in downtown Issaquah and cross under the hwy bridge after the ride, stop at the Issy brew pub.
