    Good to know you have availability. I have already looked into doubled for some work!

    Yeah, but you keep trying to sign others up to do your work. So I'm guessing you no longer want me to do it?

    Yes "he" has shown up several times.

    Count me in as a possible. I've done this trail a ton of times and love it every time! Not sure why someone thought the trail was closed for a period f the year? Been up there at all times and never seen it closed?? Also, don't quote me on this but I don't think atvs are allowed on this section of the forest. There are tracks that allow it but I don't think this is one.

    Also, as a meeting point: there are three main trails, 1.easy 2.medium 3.hard...

    1 starts almost at the top of the mountain directly at the end of Briery Branch Rd and you could just about make it to flagpole from here in a lowrider, it's basically just a maintained gravel road now.

    2 comes in off of 33 at Swizter Lake, passes all the lower camping areas and is a much longer ride to the top than 1, nothing too difficult, I ran I multiple times in my truck when it was completely stock, but it's still plenty of fun.

    Starting at Union Springs Rd : Trail 3 is a different story. You access this trail from a secondary road off 33 and the first part goes through a short section of private land before starting into the park. The first 1/3-1/2 of this trail isn't much, a sorta rough dirt road, but then things get fun. There's a section of mud holes (rain dependent) and then you get into some rough stuff. One section in particular I would seriously suggest anyone NOT armored and lifted not go up, and it's unfortunately an unavoidable obstacle. If you've got sliders and are at stock height, going down this would be possible but expect to use those sliders! From there things stay fun all the way to the top but the rest of the obstacles have side routes if it's more than you want. This trail is the one with the big rock that's all over YouTube. A very fun off camber obstacle that NEEDS spotters! I've almost done it once on my own but backed off when I just couldn't find a line that worked.

    Anyway, I'd love to make it to this, not sure what my plans look like for that weekend but I'll keep up on the thread and will hopefully be there

    I want to go there! From what I've seen, it looks like a cool place. The trail goes right by the lake?

    Thanks for the break down...def adds a lot of clarity for guys like me who arnt armored and still stock. Hopefully I can join a group doing the medium run as I think I can handle that.

    You aren't stock. You have fiberglass fenders and sliders

    True I have sliders, but fenders wont save my ass.

    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    Any ideas about how to confirm that? I don't want my brother to haul his ATV 4 hours, and not be able to use it.

    I can't even find Flagpole trail on that site... Is it called something else?

    I edited my post there to give y'all the starting point of each trail. My suggestion would be to go in trail 2 (from the lake), ride to the top, look around and camp and then anyone wanting something more technical can go DOWN trial 3 without killing themselves
