Fantasy Island North Singletrack (map)
It's time to venture back out of Phoenix for a new adventure to Fantasy Island North. I'll post more details as I have them.
COMMENTS FROM RIDERS WHO HAVE BEEN THERE:
"These trails are loads of fun. I rode for 13 miles, cruising through nearly the entire system. The north/east loops are fast, with moderate climbs and lots of twisting and turning. They are all fairly short and you can ride them up and down all you want. I especially liked Harv’s Howl, Hurt’s Donut, and Boneyard.
For me the best of FINS though is Grunt trail and the new section that traverses the length of the mountain up to Jim’s Ascent. Definitely the most technical riding on the Island with some decent exposure and climbing to satisfy the uphiller in me.
Bottom line: FINS is an XC riders’ paradise. If your tastes are more geared for National, Mormon, Geronimo, Holbert, Corona Loma, you won’t find much challenge on FINS but you surely could have fun. If you’re a weekend warrior and frequent Hawes, Usery, Casa Grande Mountain, or the race loops at McDowell, FINS is for you. "

Hi everyone I am really sorry but I have to back out of the ride. I am moving and This weekend is going to be tough and time is important. The ride is great all will like it.I have had the best time by turning right at the main junction and riding counter clock wise. After you drop down the other side make a left in the wash and climb up the only step trail and ride the ridge to the end and deside what trail you wont to do there. You can see the all.
