Summary:
Great trail that has it all, freeride-XC.
I have not been there for a few years and would like to know if it is still open and there are no problems with riding it?





Recommended Route:
Start from the bottom near the 8 and ride up.

Summary:
I've been out to Anderson Truck trails twice now and it is a blast. I'm just getting into mountain biking seriously and this trail is a great way to work on climbing and downhill skills. The climb up from Peuntz is long but not overly difficult...couple of rock gardens that can be tough to get through. We rode the second half of World Cup my second time on the trails out there and I would classify those as advanced riders only...I got a pretty good reality check.

On my second time out (1/31/09) my truck was broken into. I was parked under the 8 overpass and someone smashed my passenger side window and grabbed anything within reach. I was stupid enough to leave too much in my car, but I would recommend parking in the dirt lot closest to Alpine Blvd where there is more traffic. If anybody was out there on that day and saw something I'd appreciate the info.

Recommended Route:
Peuntz to the flat dirt plateau at the top and back down for novices.

Summary:
Just received word today that ATT has been shut down to shuttle rides. The park ranger is posted out at the top. You can still ride up and down, though, but too many complaints about alcohol and injuries fianlly caught up to the park services department.

Summary:
Depending on which way you ride this, it's either a super-intense workout or a break-neck thrillride. The ride up from Peutz is straightforward and not too technical, although it is relentless. I wouldn't classify it as "insanely hard" as Early Demise states it is. Just make sure to set your seatpost up. If you are going up to World Cup from Four Corners, you will really need to hike. It's too difficult to gain enough momentum to work your way up this part of the trail. The ride down is a total blast, though, with lots of drop-offs, doubles, bermed turns, ladders and ramps. World cup is a very advanced trail and should really be left to advanced riders with sturdy bikes. i've seen peolple get hurt badly up there.

Recommended Route:
Park at Peutz Rd under the 8 overpass and ride up the road to the Wall Of Bofus. Trail is self expanatory from this point up.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Mission Trails is fun, Steele Canyon Singletrack behind Sweetwater Reservoir, Marian Bear and La Costa.

Summary:
Well I live near this trail and ride it often with my friend who lives at the entrance of this trail. It is pretty basic at the beginning, just steap and a little sandy. Later on though it get technical because the trail has a lot of little cravices and you have to ride between them on thin pieces of dirt. Overall it has steapness, technical parts, little bunny hop jumps and a little ascending, but is one fun 8-9 mile ride.

Recommended Route:
down not up. Up is insanely hard.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Anything in The Mission Trails park.
