St. Mary's Lake? I thought it was 8 miles? I ride (bike) it in 2 hours.

You know it is more like 8 miles see where Walkerman corrected me..We have talked to bikers before and they can always go faster then us...wonder why? We do have to walk some to rest them..and those trees are killer weaving them..hard on the knee caps..

Time Varies, there are some side trails which hikers frequently follow by mistake. Allow some extra time for unintentional detours when using the area for the first time.
Trail Conditions Single track with one short section of service road across to dam.
Skill Level Easy to moderate. There are some gully and stream crossing shunt trails which hikers can select to add additional challenge.
Suitable For Families? Yes, taking into account the ages and experiences of the children. Stay together since there is one stream crossing which involves crossing a downed tree.

This 11.5 mile trail encircles the 250 acre St. Mary's Lake. Eight miles is the shortest route around the lake. First time hikers should allow extra time for unintentional but interesting detours.

They go faster because they put junk in the trails and small ditches that make us have to slow or detour....And take away the natural settings...:whistle:

We Rode The Loop (7.5 Miles) In 1 Hr 21min
It Was A Very Fast Pace, HELL I Didnot Have Time To
Do A Pit Stop. We Got Back Just Before The Rain.
I Let A Friend Ride My Gaited Mare And Now He Is
Hooked. (He Owns Two Q/H)

I would have liked to participated in that ride.:lmao: Sounds like you all had FUN!!

I missed your group by one day. Me and my friends rode part of the lake trails on Saturday and explored some trails northwest of the lake. We rode for over 4 hours & I was dead azz tired when we got done. There is alot of trails in that area and really cool to ride there. We only back tracked a mile on same trail - it was great!!
