Description: This was our second ride in a week to this area. What a great find! There are so many great trails, both single track and 4 wheeler. It was a little muddy for my taste as it had rained the day before, but as the day wore on it got better. The trail started out 4 wheeler, but became a single track on the West end of Dead Horse Ridge.
We rode up Echo Canyon, down Dead Horse ridge to Four Corners (where to two loops touch on the map below). Then we headed down #049 towards Bear Creek, turned right up Golden Gate to 4th of July Ridge then off onto 263 back to Four Corners and down #030 to Fall Creek Road.
I would put it in the top ten of good rides. A lot of it was fairly easy riding, but a few side hills that made you pay attention on Golden Gate. I didn't take any picture on #030, but it is a really nice single track about half way up. If you look at our ride from last week in Fall Creek and lay the two tracks on top each other in Google Earth you can see where they over lap. The portion that is overlapping is four wheel trail.

Summary: Really great ride and the kind of trails I enjoy. A little more climbing and elevation would have made it perfect. There are still many more miles of trails to explore near Fall Creek. I think we will be back!
