Sweet trails, If you go across the big river bridge you'll see a kinda washed out spot down into the creek go down there and up the hill(gradual and tech. climb) Follow that trail for a while you'll run into some 4-wheeler trail and dirt jump back in there. Go more and you'll come to a gas station to refresh yourself for the ride back

How to get there:
Stop at a Gas Station and ask where the Nature Center is then go there. As you come into the nature center you'll see a snowmobile trail sign and it goes back into a small gravel pit, park there.

You can ride all day on these trails.

hey river bend john, do you work there? or do you know if there's maps available or something? Or will the people there show you where the bike trails are so you don't end up on the wrong trail? I'm going to be heading over that way soon and thought I'd check this one out, but I don't want to ruin anything. thanks, Will

mountain biking is only allowed on designated trails of the nature center, not on off-trail footpaths and the like. the off-trail path this person describes is an illegal trail and is harming an endangered plant species. the nature center will soon seek to fine anyone caught biking there.

the reason for the large stones is the erosion caused by mountain bikes needed to be repaired. this is a highly sensitive protected area. please stay off the off-trail path described, and stay on designated trails.

sweet ride in the fall and spring. hit it before the itch weed grows every where or else its no fun. theres quite a few trails- the only problem is trying to find them: if you look hard enough youll find some pretty sweet trails. If you can find that trail on the other side of the river youll love it(now the start of the trail is covered with pretty large stones- so you have to walk down those then hammer up the hill.)
