Cheshire Cat and Wonderland :: One of my favourite rides is Cheshire Cat - Click here for description and access info, Maps below. Cheshire Cat Map | White Rabbit Map Dump Trails, Cheekye Fan, Ray's Trail :: By whatever name, this area in Brackendale offers a well-maintained trail network. You will be treated to some beautiful forest, brilliant emerald greens, strange sounding coodle birds, and lots of roots, rocks, and logs. The climbs are not steep, but they are technical. The descents are not steep, but they are technical. An hour or two here and your riding skills will definitely have gone up a notch. The attached maps outline the 2006 Teen Test of Metal Course (provided by Jim Douglas) - following the route will give you a good feel for the area.

67 kilometers through single-track, road, fsr, up and down. First
half will take recreational riders 3-4 hours. Second half, expect
3-5 hours. Easy outs for those needing to cut things short. Alice Lake Loop : The other day I passed a couple looking for the Alice Lake Loop. They had taken a wrong turn and were about to discover the top of Thunderbird. Here, then, is a good map, from a 2004 Twoonie, of the Alice Lake Loop. Expect to be riding two hours, although grey lines show gravel roads that can help you shorten the loop significantly.
