Description:
I rode Hardy Creek to Rim North to Bear Woods Loop to Rim South to Red Vole to Fern Creek. It's always fun to get up to Hardy Creek and do some riding. Not as crowded as other trails. Some equestrians, yes, but vigilance and respect go a long way. A few small trees across the trail 2.5 miles in on Rim Trail. The lower portion of Red Vole is worth the ride to get there. I rode back up and did it twice--lots of fun. I've ridden up there on and off for 27 years and marvel at the great trail conditions, solitude, and beautiful forest scenery. If you've never ridden there before, the first 3/4 mile is a grind uphill, but it's worth it.
