ooh come on man, that is an easy climb via the highway and the FS road!!

I'm cutting you some slack cause your probably still injured.

Have you ever hit 13-mile creek? or 9 mile creek or whatever the hell it is called farther up the FS road?

No climbing unless necessary. Smile

15 Mile Creek I believe is what it's called and no, never hit it. Have any more information about it?

15-mile is a really fun descent along a ridgeline, but you have to ride back up out of the drainage. (could be wrong about that but I'm pretty sure)

Yeah that is the one Alien. I do recall that the decent is pretty damn fun and there are some small cliffs and stuff that you can huck off of on the way down. The climb out however is absolutely brutal and I mean brutal.

Those were the only two "downhill" runs I new about up this way. Did the shamrock inn trails finally get closed down? There was some super cool tails up there with some good stunts but I do believe that the owners were installing a gate when I sold my DH rig. Can't remember the name of the road but you took a right just past the shamrock inn on highway 26, just before the highway necks down to two lanes.
