The Coal Mine Road is a rugged, unimproved trail and road network that is a great destination for dirtbike riders seeking a muddy challenge. The terrain is a mix of mostly hard-packed ground, rocks, and some steep hills. The notes emphasize that the trail is best in the rainy season, as it features many muddy sections and water crossings. With a main road of about 8 miles, the system includes side trails that provide a fun and engaging ride best suited for intermediate riders, with some beginner terrain also available.
This BLM-managed trail system is free to access and is open on weekends and holidays. The area offers excellent mountain views and access to several small lakes. Primitive, unmaintained campsites are available, but large trailers are not recommended.Dirt Bike Trail System
