Riceburnin,
Nice pics. Looks like a cool place to ride.

I must say, if you want hills come to the coal region(Mt. Carmel, Tower city, Blackwood, etc). We've got some hills that buggys have trouble on!
And it's all loose shale, talk about zero traction!

Where is this place at? Is it a large area? Many trails?

Did you know Mt. Carmel is on the Fox Racing website?
It's listed as skill level: difficult
It's probably from all the rocks.
Do they still get those HUGE puddles on the trail when it rains?
The last time I was there, I felt I should have brought a boat!

UPDATE ON HILLSVILLE:
Just went yesterday, March 11, and the main parking lot is blocked off with huge rocks. Now you have to pass up the parking lot and continue down the road to park.
This has happened before, and I talked to some locals and they said not to worry, this is a yearly thing.

But can't park in the parking lot by the brick building anymore until someone moves all the rocks.

There should be a way around the rocks. Someone started a way going through the field or did they also block that?
