Ride Summary:
If you like: climbs, descents, technical trails you should enjoy this ride. Some of Oklahoma's finest.

Trail Description:
This is really a network of trails. There is technical climbing and exhilarating downhills. The challenge here is that the downhills are on loose rock! Be very careful here or a crash is gonna be nasty and leave ya with lot's of skin jerky. There is very little if any cover so pack some sunscreen and plenty of water if riding in the summer. The place can also be very windy and cold in the late fall and winter. Try and hook up with locals to show you the best loops. If you attempt this alone or with some who don't know the network, you will get lost. There are great views here as well.

How to get there:
From Lawton, take Roger's Lane exit and go to 52nd street and turn North for 1 mile, West for 5 Miles, and turn North and travel until you see the LETRA sign and turn right. Go 1 mile and look left. Park on the pond dam.

Additional Notes:
A map can be had by calling 580-355-1808.
