Trailhead Directions: Take exit 95 off I-5. Follow Littlerock Road for a few miles to the Mima Road intersection, turn left. Drive another mile or so, turn
right on Bordeaux Rd, drive another mile or so and turn right on Marksman Rd. Go about a mile and park at Mima Falls Trailhead.
Route Description: Leave out of Mima Falls Trailhead on the trail out of the back of the campground, at the first trail intersection turn right onto Greenline
#6, at the next intersection turn left, at the next "T" intersection continue straight, at the next intersection turn left onto Trail #10, at the next intersection turn
right onto Mima#8 and continue into the picnic area at Mima Falls, ride into the picnic area and loop around the forked fir tree and the picnic table and race
back retracing your route in. Time starts and ends at the trail head with the road in the upper part of Mima Falls Campground.
Ride Summary: This is a great little ride. When the singletrack is in shape, the descent down #10 is world class buffness. Short but sweet. The trails are fast
and buffed out. This is a classic little Capitol Forest original. There are a lot of equestrian and hiker traffic on the summer weekends so please yield in order to
keep our positive relationship with all user groups. This makes a great after work ride, or any time you want a quick stiff sprinting workout. Rolling terrain.
Recommend a double mocha prefunk in Littlerock at the espresso shack. Puke yer guts out. -J.H.
