For the most part they are gravel, And soft.It robs a lot of power from the quad on the way up. Once you comit to the climb if you don't keep moving you will come to a stop about two thirds of the way up and either dig two holes and stall out or teater there for a second then cartwheel back down the hill.

Lansdale is exit 31 on 476 (or the old north east extenion)

I think the tracks are from people who came down and got up a easier way from behind.Should of put someone in the pic. so we could get some idea of the scale.

Those hills are awesome! Right now my Ody is in the process of getting it's engine rebuilt, but as soon as its back together I would love to point it at one of these massive gravel banks. I only wish we had some similar riding areas near me in VA.

I live not to far away from carbondale. I've climbed every one of those hill on my 250R and my old 350X. It's easier than it looks. The first picture is where all of the 4X4 climb up them. I've seen people on little 200S's and 200SX's climb those ones. They look steep, but they're all not that bad. They are fun to climb too. I was a little scared at first, But when I did it the first time. I couldn't stop. they're great. My friends live right at the base of the piles, and they're the ones with the zilla's. They rip up those things.

One thing that sucks is that within the next couple years they are going to be tearing them down. If've you've been there lately you'll notice that they got survey markings all over the place. I don't have much info on them right now, but when hear more I'll keep ya posted.

Now that I look at the picture, that's not where the 4X4's and 200's go up them, That picture is more over by the hercules. Where I was talking about was on the other side of the road on the back side. Ilike the other side better because there is more jumps, there's hills over there that aren't steep but they are fun. Just one thing not to do while there is go through the wet silt. You'll sink like a rock. It might look like a small puddle, but don't even try it. Watch out for drop offs too.

where do you climb hills in Ky that compare to these pics? I'd love to see them (and try them.) I've been to LBL but didn't see anthing like these pics. My friends and I are always looking for new places to ride and new people to ride with.
