Richard's Hollow
Saturday morning a group of us rode Richard's Hollow (near Logan). This is a fantastic ride that doesn't see very much traffic. The singletrack is open and swoopy for the first half, and gets narrower and much more technical toward the bottom. The initial 9.5 mile climb on Jeep road probably scares some people away, but once you get to the 7 mile singletrack downhill, you realize that the climb was worth it!

The trail crosses the creek many times
Typical Trail Views in the upper half
The following pictures illustrate how one of the riders ended up in the creek
1. A different rider approaching the "spot"
2. "The" rider stalling in a very bad spot (notice log to rider's right)
3. He promptly stalled on top, fell right onto the log, and then backwards into the creek. If only I had Sombeech there to have video footage.

Is this a loop? That trail looks sweet, I would like to ride it this weekend! Very nice pics!!
Two wheels are better than four, keep the rubber side down.

July 5? I'm in. Meet when and where? 9AM? Carpool from somewhere? Macey's parking lot?
I've hiked that trail a dozen times. It's hard to believe I've never gotten around to riding it.seen all good people turn their heads each day so satisfied I'm on my way...

Is it possible to drive all the way or partially up the Jeep trail? Looks like a really sweet ride.

The one problem with trying to drive to the trailhead is time. If you are trying to work a shuttle, it takes just as much time (if not longer) to drive up the Jeep road a then retrieve your car later as it does to just pedal up. If you are lucky you can find somebody who will just drive you to the top so you don't have to leave a car up there.
