yep like they said ALOT of road hunters. If you hike aways you can escape people. Was up there last saturday not 1 other person but there were 2 spikes in the canyon I was in

My dad quit hunting there 20 years ago because it had become too crowded THEN. 

I can't imagine what it's like, never seen it.  I hate crowds.  So I love hiking.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

sorry for the delay but as of yesterday evening i'd say they were very do-able?!?!?  I've been testing the limits of my new tires and so far they've had no problems tearing up the hills as of late whether, mud, rocks, dirt, rain and snow.  good luck and keep us posted. :tup:
