Post by: 450RRRR on January 23, 2005, 02:25:06 PM you might want to check out trailsheaven.com. thats hatfields web site. also you can look up browning fork trail house on a goggle search. we have stayed with them for the past 2 years, lisa and marty are really great people. you cant go wrong with them. and they can take care of all your permit needs.
trails are anything from wide open 4 and 5 the gear, to places i wont try on a sport quad. all are well marked and rated by difficulty... go and have a bunch of fun.. you can ride for 2 days and only cross previous trails. and if your on 4+4 then you even have more options Title: Re: Hatfield-McCoy trails Questions???

Let me tell you a little about the trails that runs through our community of Gilbert, WV. The Browning Fork Trail, which is the trail that runs through our small community of Gilbert, consists of approximately 115 miles of trail. It has the largest total amount of trails of each of our trail systems. The breakdown in trail percentage is as follows: 51% are green trails (easiest), 31% are blue trails (more difficult), 11% are black trails (most difficult), and 7% are orange trails (single track only). This trail system has direct access to the city of Gilbert, WV, gas, full service food, and lodging. It is the most popular trail in the trail system. People seem to like the diversity of it; there is something for everyone. Gilbert is VERY ATV and dirtbike friendly. You will not find any better southern hospitality. If you need any assistance planning a trip, don't hesitate to contact me. Title: Re: Hatfield-McCoy trails Questions???

Any advise would be great! if you ride a sport quad plan on getting wet and muddy ;) it was FUN but WET ;D Title: Re: Hatfield-McCoy trails Questions??? Post by: trailhouseowner on January 24, 2005, 09:02:20 AM Riding a sports quad, you often do get wet. But if we have went a while without any rain, very few riders have to worry about mud. The rider's main concern then is dust, unfortunately!!
Title: Re: Hatfield-McCoy trails Questions??? Post by: 1Scorpion on January 24, 2005, 03:21:38 PM Mud no problem, Dust no problem that is all we seem to have in Fl. I haven't found any mud yet! We ride utility quads and I'm not a fast rider anyways ;) Thanks for the info. I'm waiting to get my vaction request approved for June.
