The mileage can vary depending on which route you take. Park in Walgreen’s parking lot at the corner of Thomas road and Power road. Ride north on Power. Just as you pass over the canal the trailhead is on… Read More »

by John V. Vrabec I am new to mountain biking and thoroughly enjoyed this trail. You could probably call this a beginner’s trail, but there are enough challenges to learn the ropes very quickly.
