Rode this trail today, and it was awesome. I'm a novice mountain biker, and this was a great ride. It's got some hills, and is pretty technical. I'm definitely riding it again.

Best trail in the state! Doug Rainwater is the park ranger, He takes awesome care of the trail! [img]http://www.locomtb.com/images/photoalbum/68/100_3416.JPG[/img] It's more like 600 ft of ascent for the 10 mile loop.
