It's been about 7 years since I had been to Moss Lake to ride the trails out there and have been itching to go since I got the Salsa Mukluk fatbike.
Today ended up being the perfect day, overcast with the threat of storms looming I headed out on the trail.
It was not quite the same trail system it was 7 years ago, there was quite a bit of new trail that had been cut and I ended up getting on some stuff a little too difficult for my skill-set and had to walk a little and even hit the dirt once. There was a good mix of jumps, single track, jeep road and gravel road. Some single-track even had burms and it was pretty cool to hit those on the fatty. I didn't even touch all of the trails out there, but rode for an hour and had a blast! I recommend heading out there for a good time in the dirt! It has options for riders of all skill levels!
Moss lake is about 10 miles east of Big Spring and there is a $3 entry fee per vehicle. The trail system is located behind the lake. After you pay your entry fee go across the dam and then straight up a hill and take an immediate right. Follow the road past an old oil well location and turn right to the parking area and hit the trail!
