A few of us checked this place out last weekend. It is 43,000 acres of reclaimed coal land. It claims 100 miles of trail, which I call BS on. We rode the mapped trails and it's not 100 miles. There are trails that aren't mapped, so I don't know where they go. I was talking to a guy that said there were good trails not on the map towards Breathitt County. I guess that would be closer to Slade. I will have to look into that.
The trails for the most part and smooth and good for cruising. There are some harder trails there, but most of them are easy. I liked the long gravel road to get to the trails. Rollin about 50 down them was fun. There were some unusual sights there for sure. We saw 3 wild horses on the road coming in, a herd of cattle on the trails, some deer, a turkey, and several elk. Nothing like coming around a corner a having a bull in the way. We couldn't find the tunnel or bridge they say is there.
I probably won't go back, but I would like to check out the other trails in Breathitt County.
