Route Description:
|
|
This is a pleasent 2 day ride on the Glacial Drumlin trail. Much of the time you are away from the people and cars.
The Sandhill Station campground is a tiny little state campground that is set next to Mud Lake. Since this is off the beaten track, the campground is quiet and pleasent to stay at.
The ride will take a little more effort the normal for the distance due to gravel over much of the distance
