The trails here are not very technical, but they are a blast to ride. The network is mostly made up of ATV & snowmobile trails, with some single track connectors in between the major trails. I had a ton of fun out here, as the doubletracks aren't groomed to be flat easy trails, but are made for ATV's to have some fun. This means there are large berms with turns and you can have some fun on your MTB as the trails allow you to build up some speed to hit those berms. You'll pass through some super large sand playgrounds for ATVs where you can try to slog it, but the sand is deep. Also, there are a lot of trail connectors off of these areas, so don't be afraid to cross one to the other side. Don't let the occasional sound of gunshots scare you, as you will pass by a shooting range on your ride.
