if you're going up the buckhorn from altoona to murph , when u get to the top of the mountain by the farris wheel?(i m not sure if its still called that) but on hte left you'll see a road that goes back into the woods (its covered in coal , bc the murph area is a mining site) you follow that back and youll find a bunch of trails . Just follow the ones that look like their ridden alot and you find hte two major hill climbs , big murph and little murph. The trials are sometimes a bit confusing but more than likely youll find a cuple people that you can follow that will know where theyre going?



btw? do u know where mill run is?

its on rt 36 5 mins north of altoona...

its a nice place to ride... i've been there once and it has some half decent hills that most people are scared to climb... i did everyhill there with no problem on a stock 400ex goofing around haha


the ferris wheel is now call the appalachian lady
