turn onto players road and park head in parking between the baseball fields facing east next to the light pole with the sidewalk that goes east. go east on the sidewalk through the trees. about 75 yds. east will be a sign on the left of the sidewalk, and thatis where you enter. 1 mile through the single track it will open up just follow around the road and you will see where it takes off again. at mile 3 you will pop out on the sidewalk again and go right, til you get to another left on the sidewalk, and that will take you back to the trailhead. if you lose your bearings just keep riding and you'll figuere it out. afterall, you,strong like bull.

There has been 0 problem with sinage there.It just has not been fully put up.It is made as of last week and will be up soon.I am riding from 1 to 3 tomorrow and again from 4 to 6.I will be glad to show anyone the way.Sansom is the place that is bad for sinage.

yah you're right, I was thinking about a discussion I was having with someone about Sansom and Horseshoe, both of which lack signage as well. I thought about that last night after I posted that. big grin

I should be out there later this afternoon. See you then.
