Rode here today, it was good fun except for the million spider webs ;). The best trails are once you cross under the highway, I spent about 2 hours tooling around in 'black forest', 'coaster' and i forgot the name of the other one. I just moved up from Key West so this is the first time my fisher 29 has seen dirt and had a blast. There were only a couple of logs i couldn't clear and the only sketchy area was a little canyon, i ran it a couple of times for some good fun.

Easy to intermediate, w/ a couple of technical sections. The best ride in the Mobile area

The University Campus was a way better place. Trust me.

NEW TRAILS HAVE BEEN ADDED IN THE LAST SIX MONTHS THAT MAKE THE ENTIRE LOOP ABOUT 15 MILES. THESE NEW LOOPS ARE DEMANDING BOTH TECHNICALLY AND AEROBICALLY. COME CHECK THEM OUT. IT IS DEFINITELY NOT THE CHICKASBOGUE OF OLD.

The best thing about this trail is these two white women still have all their teeth. Score while you can. Party on.

Very well maintained trails, Some very steep places at time's, gets pretty muddy after rain

Hold on to your dentures. There are lots of roots that can test your shocks and elbows. A couple of short technical climbs that you can quickly walk up if you can't ride them.
