Take I-90 east to exit 25. Go right on to hwy 18. Follow for a few miles until you see the Tiger Mnt. trail head sign. It'll be on your right at the top of the hill. Parking lot is right there. I'd recommend meeting with some other monkeys or follow someone up the climb and on the singletrack. If you go up to the upper parking lot there is a map. Basically, the typical loop is climb the fireroad up to Preston, Preston pops out on the fire road, coming out of Preston go left down the fire road, this will turn into a slight climb which will come to a clearing with an intersection of fire roads, you'll see signs for the Northwest trail and that's the one you want, it slightly veers to the right off the main fire road (you'll see it), this trail will take you back to the original fire road and back down to the parking lot.Originally posted by shocktower

Wow...is it really that far of a loop? I've been there many times, but I didn't think it was that nutty...of course, on my SS I only pedal up about 65% of the fireroad...though getting stronger each timeOriginally posted by Zoso
Its a pretty hard climb. Its about 4 miles that starts pretty steep. Its tough because you go anaerobic and have to recover while still climbing. I usually stop once about half way up. The total length is somewhere around 16 miles.
I'll be there tomorrow at around 5pm. Blue Volvo and a blue K2 trail bike. Maybe I'll see you there.

I think I can probably make that though, though how well I keep up remains to be seen.

I have never been to Tiger Mt., what is the riding like?
Everything is cross country free-ride is just shortened extreme cross country......Originally posted by Ice Bullit
So would it be more of a cross country venture? If I want to go fast would I have to worry about hitting hikers? Would a 35lb freeride bike be able to ride it? Sorry about the questions, just want to get a feel for what its like before gas it over there...
-Thanks
no problemo, have a blast.Originally posted by Ice Bullit
sounds like fun to me. Thanks agian for the info.
