Features -none-

Overview

A linking of the Party Loop, Hammer Time, Verity Creek, and Taco Trail in the Burns Road trail system. These trails are unmarked and easy to get turned around on, so ride along with a local on your first couple times or check out the MTB Project mobile app.

Need to Know

The area is an ongoing logging operation. Be prepared for closures and a changing landscape.

Description

The trails here are mostly the same - tight, twisty singletrack in a mature forest. There is very little elevation change to speak of and no features of note - just old school mountain biking on unmarked, locals-only singletrack.

Given the number of loops in this area, there are a number of options to vary the riding direction and which trail you hit first. Give it a go and see what you prefer. There are also several unmarked doubletracks, which the trails cross or parallel at many points, which can be used as bailout options if things go wrong or you get turned around.
