I'll have to confirm on a map to make sure I am talking about the right knob, but yes there are very popular bike trails in the area. Motorized that is and it gets hammered with use out of Quartz creek and the little Naches, Manastash and Taneum. That is a hub so it gets lots of cross traffic. Very popular in September, and snows out early in November.

I have wanted to hunt the area for years so I am thinking of scouting it out. My buddy has a Peaches archery tag, so if we hunt the line I can hunt to.
