thanks haleyes i did find that map though, what id like is info from someone who has been up there before. the only info i have found was about the motorcycle trail.

 

[HaleYes]

I looked around last night and really didn't find anything either. Surely you'll find someone that's been up there. Might try www.greatlakes4x4.com they're mostly based out of MI.

anyone out there been here?

I'd be certain that this is only a motorcycle/atv trail. the only legal places to wheel in MI is silver lake, the mounds, drummond island, and an off road park south of Traverse City. Silver Lake is all dunes, the Mounds suck, drummond is good, and I've never been to the orv park.

Is this area you're talking about around the Evart area? If so I have rode my motorcycle there and there's no jeep trails.

I guess my bad. I just looked at the map and there are other trails. let me know how it is. I'd expect mud at best.

it is just a straight shot nothin challenging, fun on quads, but bumpy.

i live ten minutes away

 

[curbdog17]

well i hope that this trail does not totally suck, but my plan is still to do the loop and get some pics on here. then we can all know what its about.

 

[curbdog17]

This trail is not that great, like stated earlyer just a strait shot i did not think it was too bumpy though, there are a couple of spots where there are mud holes and one off shot that i seen where you could do some hill climbing. any way here are the pics.

The trails are very well marked, easy to read aand see.

We did see some wild life on the trail. Hi there little white tail. IM GONNA EAT YOU!!!!

I think this is a turky vulture.

After we left tin cup spring we went to the power lines out side of white cloud, it was pretty fun.

Home Sweet Home.
