This is the start of the trail.

You need only use a very, very short section of the fire-break road before joining up again with the BoSho trail visible on the left.  Don't go right here unless you love car exhaust.

Going left takes you across the dam, right takes you on a fun trail with a bridge, and straight is a dead-end.

Hoards of motorists making their nightly exit from the dreaded ATV pit. You'll have to cross this busy road to complete the circuit.

Coming from the left fork, don't miss taking this right fork to begin the final up-hill battle. It's easy to miss in the dark.
