"New stuff" - 9/24/10 - Crane Wildlife Management Area - Falmouth, MA

- Trailhead: Route 28 and 151, small dirt parking lot east side of 28.
- Rider: OMMB
- Distance: 3.6 miles 
- Temp: 65
- Weather: clear
- Trail Conditions: real nice, smooth, fast single track
- Technical Level: good mix of beginner to intermediate

Notes: While down the Cape for a wedding, OMMB got a chance to investigate an area found on the NEMBA site.  About 4 miles from the house we stayed in was an area known as Crane Wildlife Management Area which borders the Otis Air Force Base.  There are trails marked on the AFB land but I did not venture over the border.  I encountered PLENTY of single track riddled throughout the area.  Some real cool boulder climbs and a fun "Sidewinder" type trail (high banked switchbacks).  I circled most of "Crane West" but there are so many more trails to check out (along with Crane East).  Soooo......I hope to get back here soon. 

Tidbits: A morning ride with lunch in Falmouth Village would be something to consider...only one hour from home!

Happy Trails,
OMMB
