The gps track is the race course from the 13th annual race held on March 1, 2008. This was the sport class with two laps (experts ride more laps). Beginners ride a slightly different route earlier in the day. There are lots and lots of ridable trails in the area criss-crossing each other. There is some singletrack, lots of ATV tracks, and some jeep roads. Good place to come and try out your bike even if there is no race the day you are there. This is low altitude desert riding, good for spring and fall and some winter riding. In the summer ride early and it will be fun.
