    Big creepy old farm house toward the top of the main road a good place to chill until the "hills have eyes" thing sets in. Most the trails are well used by horses about half the trails have a hard pack but a lot are horse hove shredded with some 1-2ft deep trenches. The down hills were fun and some of the climbs had some fun winding tech but needed trimming it was fun but I don't think Ill be back till winter.

    (Two of the DH sections)

    Very cool. Haven't officially ridden here, but I have ridden through the park on my way to Pisgah Peak. I'll have to do some more exploring one of these days....

    Matt, one of these days we should ride there and I'll give you a tour of all the options. A lot of those trails were cut by a bunch of us 18-20 years ago on the motos. There are a ton of secret squirrel trails still. My parents still live right near there and I ride there all the time.

    Woody, have you ever taken Yucaipa Ridge Truck Trail / 1S08 between Oak Glen and the Forest Falls cut-off? I've been trying to find a way to link Crafton, Wildwood/Pisgah, Old 38 together.

    K, yeah, I've ridden it waaay back when. The conservancy has really tightened up passage thru the area on the Forest Falls side, although there are a couple of routes down further down the ridge. To get up to the ridge trail are you trying to go up past the conservation camp (more off the end of Pisgah)? Or further down the road into Oak Glen by Mcfarlands ranch? That's a big ride...I'm down to do it, we can start at my pad.

    Speaking of the FF-OG route, I heard is starts on the FF side right at the fork to go to Angeles Forest/Firest Falls. I also heard it is overgrown and more like a hiking trail now?

    please keep us informed if this occurs...thanks

    sart to crafton is doable w/ minimal road...though the pipeline messed things up a little. I think there are plans/talk to eventually hook crafton/grape all the way down to avoid any road riding/hiking, but I'm not sure when it will happen
