Fast technical rolling trails on top of the hill that leads to long fast descents to the river edge and then back up again. Steep gully's along the river.

Summary:
Quite the enjoyable trail. It doesn't seem like it gets ridden very much. We didn't see many people out on a nice weekend. The trails themselves are fast and have a few climbs. They have some obstacles that you can simply bypass if you aren't comfortable. It's fairly short and I rode it twice. The quicker you go, the more fun it is, but just make sure to watch for a misdirection.

Recommended Route:
Pretty much one route.

Summary:
This trail system is one of the better single tracks in the area dispite only being a touch over 6 miles with the short track.
Great for the weekend warriors passing through and someone who wants a quick challenge. The upper section is not quite as difficult as the lower section as it has a series of switch backs, rock beds 1000 yard climbs over bumpy fire roads and log skinnies over small gaps to deal with. Short track is 1.2 miles, very fast and perfect for the begining rider with little experience. Give Muskatatuck a try if you are in the area.

Recommended Route:
Short track for newbies, make sure to stay on the right side of the drive in for the short track, directly behind the soccor fields. Lower area for Season Vets, stay to the left of the drive and follow path past the small pond.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Versails State park

Summary:
Can't speak much about the XC trails here. We were at this course for the downhill event. There are two courses. Both have flat fast upper areas. Easier course has long steep downhill with two small 1ft drops with a rocky finish. The more technical course has a very rooty and rocky mid-section with technical rocky final descent. To see first person video footage as well as some picturse of the course go to http://www.sicklines.com and go under the courses section.

Summary:
I wrote a summary of this trail about a year ago, and now that I live in the area I am writing another one. This is a pretty good trail. An epic ride..no, but it is a lot of fun to ride. It is a short loop, but has many options. It will get your lungs pumping as well. I use it to train for much longer epic rides. We do not have a lot around here, so this is the best. It is well maintained, and although many other reviews state that it isn't marked well, it is. Just look at the diamonds on the trees. If you're around you should attend the DINO race the first weekend of July.

Recommended Route:
Just get on it anywhere you see it, you will not be disappointed.

Summary:
Not recommeneded: The park is small and the trails are poorly marked making for a frustrating ride. As other reviews have stated there are a lot of steep down hills that end a a sharp V ravine Requiring the rider to dismount.

During the fall/winter homes and other structure are clearly visible through the leafless trees making it feel like you are riding in someones back yard.

Recommended Route:
none

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Nebo Ridge
