Wudi6 Ride Arrival Route Sheet
Feb 27-March?

Notes: Arkansas State Hwy 7 is a "speed trap" from Caddo Valley all the way north to the turn-off to the Riding Area. Please drive slowly and especially courteous on the back roads. We need to maintain a good relationship with the locals.

From the North on I-30:
Take the Social Hill exit, Highway 84, and proceed West to Bismark, AR It will be approximately 15 miles West to Bismark, at the intersection of State Hwy 7 and State Hwy 84.

From the South at the intersection of State Highway 7 and I-30 at Caddo Valley/Arkadelphia:
Take State Hwy 7 north approximately 12 miles north to Bismark.
*****************************************************
From: Bismark, AR/The intersection of Hwy 84 and Hwy 7.

Proceed North on Hwy 7 approximately 1.4 miles. Turn right on paved road.
(note: sign for "Diamond B Ranch", chicken houses on top of hill above road.)
Proceed .3 mile
At top of hill, turn left
Proceed .3 mile.
At bottom of the hill, take a right at the three way intersection, on Camp Road. Gravel surface will start soon.
(note: The western border of the Property (where we will have permission to ride) is .5 miles east of this intersection. Watch for the trail crossing the road at that point.)
Proceed 2.85 miles East on Camp Road.
Take a right on Agar Loop road.
This turn is in a long straight stretch in the road.
(If you miss this turn, you will see Tree Road on the left within 200 yards, and can turn around.)
Proceed .85 miles on Agar Loop.
At top of hill, watch for the trail crossing, followed closely by a downhill hairpin left curve. Be slow and cautious at this point. It is a bad place to meet someone in a hurry.
Past here, the road becomes a very nice and well maintained ONE LANE road. (You are getting very close to the campground, so hurrying won't make any difference in arrival time.)
Turn right on road to campground.
Proceed .15 miles to campground/pipeline right-of-way.

I'll be set up to the right, on the right, toward the end of the right-of-way.

Camping is open the length of the pipeline right-of-way. I suggest that anyone who doesn't like generators would be best served to not set-up camp too close to our spot.
Jim Cook gave me directions from Bismark/TR trails over to Lost Creek, for anyone wanting to go the MX track. Take 84 West from Bismark. Go 12 miles to Deer Park Road and turn right. Go about 100 yards (I think it's a left) onto Dearman Road which is gravel. That road runs into Lost Creek.

Apparently there's a gate at a 90 in the road. EVERYONE entering the Lost Creek facility must sign a release even if you're not riding there.

There are three gas stations in Bismark and two more between Bismark and Lost Creek. Lost Creek has camping but doesn't have any RV hookups but they can help with the water if you have a holding tank. It is about 15 miles or so to Bismark where the Train Tobber trail is located. Stores are within 15 miles and Lost Creek has plenty of firewood.
