Gifford Intel?
 

Gents -

We've hit Gifford the last two years and have had a blast, but are looking to explore more of the area, hit new trails, find some place good to camp, etc.

If anyone has good knowledge, appreciate any info and insight :cool:

Don't know about the bulk of the trails, but a regular group have cleaning, clearing, & riding the southern end. I'll be riding/camping from Blue Lake(the actual lake)...on the big blue Beamer.

Just to be clear...I've hiked & biked the bejesus outta Gifford, and I still don't know most of the trail names, and only know the "main" roads by name/number. There's some really cool places in Gifford to see, by DSing. One of my favs is the old Burley Mountain lookout.

bow - do you have a contact from that group of folks? The previous two years, we've camped at Olallie Lake (1st year) and Council Lake (2nd year). We've explored a bunch of the trails in the NE part of the park and had fun - especially Yozoo (276), 118 (Hamilton...I think) and those; but they're a hike from where we've camped.

We haven't hit the stuff in the SW part of the area, though I think some of those trails are pretty gnarly - don't like the high exposure stuff where a fall means your bike's gone forever.

Thanks for any insight :cool:

Oh yeah - when are you going to be camped at Blue Lake? That's right in the heart of a ton of fun trails, though I wouldn't want to take some of 'em on a dualsport...lol.
