Looks like tons of fun!

Are there trail maps available? I am headed down in Feb. with a conference and wouldn't mind hitting one or two of them.

Thanks for the info. We are looking at a couple hours and my wife and I are novice at best. We like to ride just not real technical or steep stuff.

I used to ride the three fingers of death on my dirt bike in the late 80's. I remember when there was nothing out there but dirt bike trails and a few houses on the road. Most of the little ridges that are big jumps for the bikes going downhill where excellent jumps for dirt bikes going uphill. Ah, the good old days. Then they decided they needed to save the poopy flower and it was all over.

But I've had plenty of time riding that trail on my mtn bike in the early 90's before there were any signs or fences. Still looks like a blast.

How was the bottom part of the bearclaw trail? I haven't ridden that in a while, due to all the bumpy ruts...I've also heard people say that trail was so much more fun to ride in the 90's.

I thought it was awesome. Little bumpy yeah, but not enough to make it unenjoyable. It did rain pretty hard again yesterday though. So it could be bad now.

I've seen it in worse condition, but it's been a little rough in the past few years. I think it's getting better though.

Nice pic of the three fingers of death. I think that they better rename it now to be 8 fingers. Now if I can have the confidence to ride some of those new lines again without any peer pressure that would be cool :nod:
