Here’s a few pics from our Tulsa Freeriders group ride a couple weeks ago at Cavanal Hill in Poteau, Oklahoma. It is the ‘World’s Highest Hill’ with an elevation of 1999’, one foot shy of being a mountain. So far we’ve found 2 DH trails, although there is plenty of other jeep trails around that we can hit, we just need a couple GPS’s and some walkie talkies. The runs take ~30 minutes each, and the shuttle is paved the whole way to the top. Good times………………….good times

Here’s a few pics

The crew, Steve, Joe, Denis and me

Steve, same spot

View of the end about ¾ the way down, you can see the cars in between the trees

our awesome shuttle drivers

Steve, on a nice drop we found at the end

So, if anyone is ever in Oklahoma, and wants to do some downhillin’, let me know, and we’ll hit it up. I could only make 4 runs that day because my arms got soooooo pumped I couldn’t grab the back brake anymore.

Whether it be pinkbike feet or ridemonkey feet or pigs feet, that's a man sized drop.

I don't know Jesse. It ends up on private land, and there are 2 spots in the trail where you have to push up. They are very short, like 20 yards or so. That and this place is SO tech that there would be bitching like you've never heard before. If you heard any of that crap about Clayton about how it was "too tough, too rocky" last spring, then it is 5 times more difficult than Clayton. I have been tossing that idea around for a while now though, as it would be a sweet spot to do it.

If you get motivated to build a single track trail, lemme know. Ive got the itch to build some new stuff.

That's awesome 1999 ft high.

So was it enough dh to get any brake fade towards the bottom? Aaaah the beautiful stench of overheated pads/rotors.

Nice ! That looks like fun!
