This one is worth going to! It's worth the drive, or the stop if you're already in the area. Extensive trail system. It would take most of the day to hit all of the loops. Most of the trails are one direction which is nice. Plenty of awesome downhill rewards, but the trails are well laid out so you don't mind the going back up.

Amazing Trails with terrain for all levels. The more difficult trails have great drops and small jumps after you earn the elevation. The easier trails have good flow. Dirt Lip was my favorite overall. Diesel Bear has great flow and very well maintained Troglodyte is a must for the view! Hooten Hollow is super fun! Lady Spider is the most technical and hardest climb
