Coolest Gnarly Trail with Waterfalls

#1 Post by oldmandave59 » Sun Aug 19, 2012 9:50 am

Finally got time to edit this video from the WFO Trailriders Mill Creek Arkansas Spring ride. We found all kinds of new single track there this year and a new BAD BOY Trail. Next year Mill Creek Spring Ride Event will be short notice because we want to be there when the waterfalls are running full. We found many very close to camp , but not in Mill Creek Riding area, including one very well hidden, probably only locals know about.
This new trail is very well hidden too and very dangerous to access from the top because it is on a cliff and snakes down into a valley. We had met up with some locals and had helped them recover a jeep that had gone over a ledge on the blue run, using the FJ as an anchor and a winch on another Jeep, and successfully recovered the jeep after about 2 and a half hours of winching and repositioning vehicles to recover on the south end of the blue trail about half way up the hill climb.
The new trail is a serious 4X4 trail if you come in from the beginning, but can be accessed from other access points yet to be explored and found. We had gotten within a mile with the FJ,( Lifted and locked ) when the crew that had gone ahead on the bikes and informed us that the waterfall was dry at this time right before a very gnarly hill climb, so we turned around there and rode in from the top the next day.
Notice that the 1st waterfall is going to be the most scenic coming in from the top.

Riding is not a hobby, its a lifestyle
