Finally got to ride here today. First time but it defintely WONT be my last. Great mix of trails, from tire poppin rocky and slow, to a wide open snow mobile trail that has plety of room for a good 6th gear cruise. 42 total miles of trails and we might have gotten through 15 of em. The sled trail is about 4 miles itself. Intermediate trails have nice ups and downs water holes, some mud, easy trails are nice to give the thumb and clutch hand a break. More difficult trails (as they call them) are nice mix of hard turns, out of nowhere jumps (atleast thats what we did on them) and rocky terrain. All in all a great place for any level rider. Not too bad of a drive for PA residents in the Harrisburg/Central PA region and north to northwestern Maryland. I highly recommend it

Thanks for the report. I've been trying to get there for 2 months but work and weather never seem to oblige.

Yeah i went to day because the weather was so nice and i plan on doing alot of routine maintenance here soon so i wanted to get a good ride in. Def check it out when you can, I havent ridden many trails so im not a expert but they were perfect for me. Plenty of variety, i recommend printing out the trail map on the DCNR site so you know where you're going, I think the reason I only covered the trails I did is because i kept looping back around into the same ones...lol. No worries I liked everyone i rode on. I gotta get my thumb throttle back on though, couple unwanted throttle bursts on the rockies with my twist. Oh well, like i said check it out

It's on the top top of the list. I've thought about a twist since I've mostly ridden street bikes. I'm starting to understand the thumb throttle.

I ride there all the time . Its nice since in the winter the let you ride on part of the forest roads. and if you want a good time wait till there is a little snow on the trails

Yeah that snowmobile trail/logging trail is great for a motor cool down and just a good scenery cruise. Cant wait to go back

I may be up there on Sunday. If anyone is up there keep an eye out for me.

Finally got there. Really nice place with good trails. I didn't see much as far as climbing goes but the harder trails gave me a reason to have a skid plate. I got stuck on 2 rocks and had to back up and try again. What was really nice was the lack of traffic. Just pull off and enjoy the scenery.
