Does anyone know the status of the trails at Dodge City, Alabama near the old coal mining/strip pits? I was there last weekend and I was run off by a security guard. Looks like the coal ming operation had started back up. He then told us to go down the road to the 2nd intersection past the old parking area and ride on the Drummond Coal co. property - but we didn't see any trails and it was starting to rain (Memorial Day), so we left. I hope this isn't the end of this ride area. Any info would be appreciated.

 

yep shut down was told up to 5 years
i think he was telling you to go to chigger ridge
it is a trail loop approx 15 miles lots of nasty hills

 

No, he told us to go down that same road about a 1/4 mile further.

I know Chigger Ridge very well, and we were 10-15 miles from there.

I hate when this happens. I guess energy costs are forcing open marginal strip pits.

 

Bamaboss:

Where do you ride around Cullman?

I have ridden Chigger Ridge, Dodge City Strip Pit Trails, Morris Exit, Bankhead Forest Trails, and Kentuck.

What about Bremen? I have heard that there are trails there to ride, but I have never recieved directions on where to ride.

Can you help?
