If you want a real challenge, try trail 16 at about 3pm when the afternoon thunder boomers hit. We stayed at the Comfort Inn. It's about a 15 minute drive to the trail heads. You can buy your permits at most of the hotels. There's not much else to say other than, you're going to love it. Have fun.

It is really for 4x4 atv's. There was a few sport quads but they could not go to alot of the places. When you go get directions to slippery rock, the coal mines, and the mountian top view spot. We are going back up for the fall ride in october can't wait.

Title: Re: coal creek mining co. Post by: PaulyV500 on July 09, 2005, 08:09:21 AM We went there with a small group in the fall, and it was the second best place I have ever been to. There are some very difficult trails that are very steep and rocky. It is very similar to Hatfield mcCoy but better. Trail 12 is at the bottom of a valley and has a whole bunch of creek crossings, it is the best trail there. Have a great time and be sure to lock up your bikes because they tried to steal ours on the last night, but we were locked up with 3 locks and they gave up or frieghtned off.
