Hot summer ride on Upper Yankee Doodle, Battle Flat, and Peck Mine with lunch in Crown King. |
 |
 |
'Super rocky ride up to Sunflower mine. Rocky trail continues back to the main access road. Gold Ridge trail #47 links main access road (#201) back to the Beeline Highway. Trail 47 is grown over, washed out, and nearly impassible in places. Packing a shovel and saw is a good idea | |
 |
 |
Ride from Bumble Bee to Cleator via Turkey Creek. Recon to the top of the hill at Desoto Mine. Crown King for lunch. Peck Mine and FR9268 back to Desoto Mine. Great ride with some short tough spots. | |
 |

Fun ride into history visiting the ghost towns of Gillette, Tip Top, and Packer. The roads to Gillette and Tip Top are pretty easy and shouldn't be a problem for any bike with a little clearance. Going past Tip Top to Packer and the Milk Ranch requires an experienced rider with agressive tires, steep climbs on washed out roads with tight switchbacks. | |
 |

Great fun ride from Lake Pleasant to Mayer. Brutal rocks and hills from Dugas to Bloody Basin. Wagoner Road is still my favorite ride. |
 |
 |
Epic battle of European Domination as Austria engages Spain. Both would suffer heavy casualties at the Battle of the Bulge. | |
 |
 |
Best suited for dirt bikes. A mix of sand, single track, sand, no track, sand, whoops, and sand. | |
 |
 |
The Island is a challenging ride but not overly difficult. Great views and loads of fun. There are a few hills that are a interesting climb, but they are short so it's easy to regroup. | |
 |
 |
If you stay off NF17, the ride is easy to moderate. NF17 is extreme, rocks, mud, hills. Make sure that your equipment is in order before attempting, or have a very good friend who flys a helicopter. | |
 |
 |
The trails between New River and Black Canyon City are EXTREME and not for the faint of heart adventure rider. This pass through Table Mesa Road found conditions excellent. The road is easy with a couple moderately challenging climbs. | |
 |

 |
Day 1 of a 3 day farewell ride for JD - DirtyDog before his return to Oklahoma. The extreme section from Bumble Bee to Cleator was littered with slippery rocks and sticky mud. |
 |
2008-06-01 |
 |
The trail to and through Box Canyon is an easy fast ride. Once you make the turn off to the Coke Ovens the trail becomes progressively more difficult. Extreme climbs and descents and monster boulders fill the trails. One exit option is to cross the Gila River, an easy trail, a deep fast river crossing if you dare to take it. The second alternative route is BattleAx trail which begins with more boulders but eases up after a few miles. |
 |
2008-04-19 |
 |
The backway to Crown King is easy up to CK Rock. From there the trail has some tremendous hill climbs and rocky sections. Not recommended for big bikes or inexperienced riders. |
 |
2008-01-05 |
 |
Turkey Creek trail from Bumble Bee to Cleator is extremely difficult. Bloody Basin from Cordes Junction to Sheep Bridge is easy graded dirt road. Sheep Bridge to Horseshoe Dam has some difficult sections. |
 |
 |
