The trails can be found by entering the gate and following the double-track into the woods. A sign board has a map of the trails. This trail is a 9 mile loop comprised almost entirely of nice, tight singletrack. The course here will throw everything at you; extremely technical rocky stretches, sketchy climbs up loose and rocky slopes, long smooth descents, and correspondingly long lung-busting climbs.
