I have been wanting to ride this area for a few years and when Phil sent me a text Saturday wanting to ride Sunday i didn't really feel like riding, but then i thought we could check out this area and I'm glad i decided to go. The riding was excellent! So many trails and lots of peaks with spectacular views. I know from seeing other posts that there are many trails that connect to this area. I can't wait to explore this area some more.

That's a very fun area to ride - Grizzly Guy showed me around a couple of years ago. I mean to go back this past summer but didn't make it over there. The bad part is less trees, and the good part is less trees! The Bear Valley OHV area is a lot of fun too. And if you have a lot of time and miles, you can connect to Treasure Mountain Road (FR-15, I think) across 89 and ride over to Meadow Lake, or across Yuba Pass. Lotta mileage! Thanks for the pix!

Yes the further east the less trees but the area was beautiful.
When we rode to Bordertown i didn't realize there is a casino on the other side of the fence until i was checking our ride on Google Earth, it looks like we could of crossed the tracks, parked then walked over to it.

We may go again this weekend.

Another Bordertown thread: viewtopic.php?f=22&t=3100&hilit=bordertown

I'm toying with the idea of riding this weekend, not yet sure. What are you thinking in terms of a route and jumping off spot?
