Little Bear and Big Bear are similar in both their terrain and difficulty, and both are stables of Bear Brook, being easily accessible from the main parking lot. Pretty solid (usually), packed trail with some roots here and there and some punchy climbs, but not too punchy. Really fun both directions; be careful of the sharp turns near the end on your way down. Don't hook a handlebar!
