I am headed up to Pow to watch my nephew ride motocross Friday and I want to do a mountain bike while Im up there.
I read Bruce's write up on the trail up there on Utah mountain biking.com. There has been a note added saying it was closed for a while and might be overgrown. I am just wondering if any of you have ridden this or have any info on the riding up there.

These ride tracks include the racetrack loop singletrack up there that is likely overgrown. The very primitive doubletrack out to either the top of Geertsen Canyon or an unnamed overlook to the east is fun, not too much climbing, and likely not overgrown. And there is a lot more doubletrack in the area.

Not really.
I saw alot of PRIVATE property signs so I just watched the motocross races.

work has been nuts, so I have just been hitting bonneville before the sun goes down, all though last friday I did get up to basin, rode green pond to last chance, to needles to elk horn ride, porcupine back to green pond, just a little over 10 miles made for a great ride.
hope to get back up to basin wed or thursday....that is if i can get out while the boss is not looking..LOL...let me know when you are going up again, would like to do a ride with you before the season is over...and live2...trail was in terriable shape friday i am guessing from all the racers pre-riding the trail....hope the rain has fixed it up...how about thursday at 6? gp trail head?
