Description - Category - Intermediate, Expert, rock gardens, rock riding, small drops tough ups! Not for the timid, the weak or the wimpy.. Folks, this is the technical single track that I travel thousands of miles looking for and often end up empty handed.. The grave ridge trail is pure technical playground, so many different lines and all ride able. Rocks here are like tombstones jammed into the earth at obtuse angles.. In other words, deadly giant sized death cookies. This first trail (grave ridge) was short (1 mile) but surrounded by other ATV double track to explore. The next 2 or so miles is 100% uphill fire road (UGHHH), and it gets worse, at the end of the ride, all your vertical is WASTED on the dead woman hollow trail.. BUT, its still worth the trip to get to 3 mile trail.. The trail is focking awesome.. 3 miles of bike handling mayhem, ups and downs. The trail ends with a short section of banked winding single track.. If you want to avoid the wasted road ride uphill and downhill, just do 2 separate loops and move your car.. Or if you have legs just suck up the extra 1500 feet.. If there was single track of any kind connecting the 2 trails, it would be close 5 buckets without a doubt.. Pre-ride Music: Pragga
