Can anyone give me some info about they bonne carre spillway? I heard there were three main trails designed for a small ATV a medium and stock ATV and a BAD @$$ trail for the big dogs! Does anyone know about that? Any info will help!

 

Matt,

I wish someone would enlighten us. I'd like to ride the spillway, but I don't know my way around. With my luck, I'd lose my quad in a bottomless hole and have to go to China to pick it up.

Shane,

I e-mailed Jeff at highlifter. He will most likely give me some good quality info about the spillway. I'll post it when he replys.

 

Jeff said that he has a frined who rides at bonnie carrie alot.He said that they closed alot of it off, but there is still a good bit of land to ride. He said that in the beginning they had 3 major trails= easy medium and difficult. However they have so many riders there that all the trails are fairly difficult. He said it is no place for a 2x4. Shane, I think me and you could handle it though. We both have pretty awesome 4x4's.

 

oh yeah and about not knowing the way around, he said there are almost always alot of riders there. So find some idiot to try the holes out before you do!

 

Matt,

We are thinking about going down this Sunday. Do you know how to get ot the spillway? Can you give me some directions??

round. Great area to explore and mud bog. To get here from the east on I-10: Exit I-10 at I-310
in Kenner. Go south on I-310 to Hwy 61 and exit right on 61. Go app. 5 miles to a town named
Norco. The spillway will intersect Hwy 61 immediately past this town. Enter the spillway on
the south side of Hwy 61. Parking areas are available as soon as you enter the spillway. From
the west on I-10: Exit I-10 in Laplace (exit 209) onto Hwy 51. Take 51 south app. 2 miles to
Hwy 61. Turn left on Hwy 61 and go app. 5 miles to spillway. Enter spillway as described

Good luck Shane. Let me know how it was. I want to go next weekend for my birthday. I'll get a few frineds to bring their atvs too. They all have 2x4's so I'll be pulling them out all day
