    One of my favorite places to ride. I camp here every fall and ride right out of the campsite. $6 day use fee to get in but hot showers available at Coopers trailhead. The trail system was designed by none other than Randy Victory over the course of several years. You can make a loop anywhere from 7 miles to 15 miles from the top. Noticed this year some bypass trails that go around some of the gnarliest climbs, but you can still drop them on the way down.

    There is much more here than the 7-mile loop on the map. They have made loops out of Rust Bucket and Bones Trails which adds about twelve miles of great ST and links up with Upper Raptor. The Upper Raptor/Thumper/Lime Kiln DH is a blast with lots of steps, drops and swoopy sections to keep a smile on any riders face.
