Books In Print:
"Mountain Biking Northern Arkansas: Guide to the Ozarks and Arkansas River Valley"by Donald West
Retail price: $14.95
Book description:
The guide features twenty-one mountain bike trails through out the region. Fifteen of the trails in the guide have never been published before. All of the trails were mapped using a GPS, so trail locations are accurate. Each trail has a detailed trail description, map, expected ride time, trail type, and additional information about the area. The book focuses primarily on singletrack trails open to mountain biking and hiking, but several of the trails are open to 4-wheelers and equestrians.
The book is broken into two main sections covering the Ozark Mountains and the Arkansas River Valley. You will find beginner friendly trails like Lake Fayetteville and Springhill Park. There are great intermediate trails including Hobbs State Park—Conservation Area and Camp Robinson Trails. Expert riders looking for more challenging mountain bike destinations will enjoy the Syllamo Trail System in Mountain View and Pigeon Creek Trail System in Mountain Home.
Furthermore, this guide has useful information about weather in Arkansas, trail ratings, general trail location map, lists of Arkansas land managers, and bike shop contacts.
The book was generously sponsored by Adventure Subaru, Now Creative, Highroller Cyclery, and West Environmental Consulting. The book will sell for $14.95. Look for the book at your local bike shop and outdoor store through out Arkansas or contact Don directly at (479) 236-3292.
Look for more books and maps by Don in the future. There are plans to write a guide for Southern Arkansas within the next year and a detailed topographic map of Devil’s Den State Park with all the hiking, equestrian, and mountain biking trails.
