this is an excellent trail that is good for plenty of trail riding. rode the lost trail - mary davis trail loop this past weekend. had an awesome time, took us a while to make the loop, and we were spent when it was all over. awesome technical section at the beginning. lots of wet, leaf covered roots made it a b!tch

This is an amazing trail. As for the WVU guy, I've gotta say that it was sweet when S. Florida rolled over the Brokeback Mountaineers Friday night. Kiss your national title hopes goodbye. Now, as for the trail, ride it...it's awesome.

Fun for a while--until we got lost. Started at the (Lost Trail?) trailhead just off the campgrounds and finished off on the Mary Davis. Got turned around at the top of the hill and ended up on private property. Thought the trail markings at this "intersection" were terribly inadequate. Any tips?

rode trail many times, never the same ride. very scenic and can be difficult depending on weather. rocky and rooty but better than flat and boring.

I rode this trail yesterday, it was muddy but was still enjoyable. I guess I'm considered a weekend warrior even though I go every chance I get. The first hill is a killer hill but from there the trail really evens out and provides the rider with challenging up and downs and a nice downhill section. All in all
I think the trail is great. I'll be there again tomorrow.

Only rode this trail a few times, but when i did i had a blast. My first time riding was on these trails. The long climb was super rough but after u got up there you felt so proud. Good trails.

This is a good outing for the rider who isn't very experienced. Let me put it this way - you could take your girlfriend with you who isn't into the outdoors too much, and still find things to challenge you - by the way - this is to BG WVU...whatever - WVU may have the state name - but they're the second rate school in the state!!! Go Herd!!!!!!

Your in Marshall country, which in of itself means it sucks. Come on now, you people dont even have any big mountains down there. Come to Mountaineer country and we will show you what real trail riding is all about. Go WVU
