My brother and I are going to check out Capitol State Forest tomorrow...anyone have recommendations on where to enter the park? We rode Evans Creek today and it was okay...some of the trails were a little advanced for me and it was super rocky...Is Capitol similar?

Thanks!
Capitol is not even close to Evans. The trails are well cared for and the gravel roads are legal to ride on. Rock Candy, off of Hwy 8, not 12. There is access to logging roads, powerlines and the North Rim trails. If you go to Waddell Creek there are trailheads for the Middle Waddell Loop, Mt Molly and Porter Creek trails. You can access roads from any of these. Fairly good signage at the trail juntions too. All the trails will tie together somewhere along the line and there are maps available on line. I prefer the ones you can order because the scale is better and they are in color.

The maps I picked up at the distribution center are in color, maybe they have changed since Bear ("The Coyote") got his.

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's go Larry, let's go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can reserve now and cancel later![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
ok, 371 but we reserve the right to cancel later if we need to [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img][/quote]

You have to go! No canceling allowed. You've canceled on the last two, that's your quota untill 2010! Only two cancels allowed in a 5 year period (after you have made reservations).

Oh man, once again my kids spring break is the week before [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I even got a couple maps of Honeyman when we were down there last time, I marked out some spots I thought were big enough and easy to back our Quadcycle Hauler into.
Sean, sorry man, but everything is already taken the first week of April because so many kids have spring break that week.
I'm still trying to get the friends that went with us to Coos to take site 368, next to us. I might have to reserve it for them. I can always cancel it or get someone else to take it.

Sites 408 and 373 are still available at Honeyman in April, from the 7th-11th.
So is 368 but I'm going to reserve that one too.

The 250EX has found a new owner, but it will remain in my garage for awhile, along with two 250r's.
