myself and a buddy are planning to ride the trails on the listed dates. i was wondering first
if anyone else was interested in hook'n up?
second, for those of you who've been there, is camping from your vehicle prohibited at the trailheads? which of the systems has the most challenging trails? my map suggests the "bear wallow". do your quads have to be registered to use the trails? thanx for your input, and if your interested in riding these dates, drop me a line..........

Sorry no camping at the trailheads. Try Paridise Island Campground. These are listed in the accomidation section of the Hatfield web site.
Bear Wallow does have the most difficult trails. Rock House has the most trails. Have fun.

Sounds good, me and my buddy are in. where's everyone camping at? I was thinking about camping at Devil Anse Campground or in Logan. I just need to know where to buy a permit.

hey sounds good gary660,
you definately got it good living so close to these trails. you've probably ridd'n all the trails, can you tell me what makes bear wallows
black trails the most difficult? are they rocky, muddy, rutted out, steep, deep water, or all the above? were on a mission to ride as hard and as much as one possibly can in two days. then chill at the camp and swill cold ones round a fire. not that we wont be stopping to soak up the vistas and snap some pics but, we like to keep keep'n on if ya know what i mean...hehe....
Quadneck,
im going with 660r's advise to make reservations
w/ the # above. 15 mins. from the trail head sounds good. we're leaving Pa round 11pm friday night and heading strait to the trailhead for daybreak. our plan is concrete. we will be there.
i'll keep everyone updated through the month so's
we all end up on the same track.

we'll see ya there, I called the number at chief logan state park, and they told me that the camp site didn't open until may 18th. She said the was a hotel 6 miles from the trail head called sycamore inn, but I would rather camp outside. If you find a place to camp at let me know.
