Wow i didnt realize so many people live away from the trails. Makes me thankful for where i live. There are new and old mine and logging rds all over my whole county my friends an i are extremely fortunate in that category. Its not always that great though some land owners can be pretty hateful but most are easy going and understanding as long as we dont wreck the terain and leave messes. We also have to be careful because old mines arent always safe to be around.

To answer the question im mins from the trails

Nearest trails on FS land I can get to in 25 minutes if I am driving fast. Nearest challenging trail is 40 minutes.
