This is a great trail! and best of all its FREE if you have your ATV registered in PA!
It was pretty muddy the day I went but no issues with getting around with a 2x4 quad. It's kid friendly coming from the big lot on the north side for the first seven miles, and then it gets a bit more challenging. Most trails are single file one way traffic but there are plenty of pull offs about every 300 feet or so to allow people to pass.
Had lots of hills, bumps and jumps and a lot of rocky sections that had small bolders littering the trails. Kind of like the variety but you really need to watch where you put your tires on the rocky sections. Theres some sharp ones out there! Put a small bend in a rim on one of those bad boys and didn't notice it until 4 days after the ride!
Nice high speed section with whoops right on the side of a drop off. Makes it very exciting to ride on, Any mistakes and you are going right down the side of a 100 foot drop!
Didn't try the more challenging trails since I was riding solo and didn't go too far away from the rest of the riders on the trails JUST IN CASE!.
Forget about cell phones up there, no service on any carrier. 2-Way Radios are a must for this trail if you have a group.
