Flat Creek is now open year round with an honor box at the saloon, which is good news because there are some great trails here.
The trails are varied with many interesting challenges. Climbs are rough in some places, but a general variance in the trail condition and composure means that riders need to stay on their toes.
One of the trails that runs along the creek hits two caves, one that is really more of a crevice that is difficult to ride through at high speeds (especially if your bike has pedals...) and the other is an actual cave that the trail runs through. It's only one or two hundred feet in length but because it turns, you can't see the end when you enter into it.
For those that like a technical challenge, there is a lot to love about this place.
