Connecting ACA Routes / Great Divide MTB alternate Eureka MT into Glacier NP

« on: June 23, 2015, 12:52:32 pm »

Wondering if it's worth leaving the Great Divide trail at Red Meadow Rd and taking North Fork Rd to Polebridge mt and accessing Glacier park on the west side, then rejoining Great Divide trail at Columbia Falls or Whitefish MT. Or even fording the N Flathead River and taking Kitna Lake Rd south to the going to sun road. Looks pretty doable by google maps, but looking for feedback and wondering if anyone had actually gone this route. thanks!

Routes / Appalachian mountain bike tour? Great Divide prep.

« on: November 06, 2014, 04:50:10 pm »

Im looking to get my feet wet doing some mt bike touring in preparation for a great divide trip without flying out west.  Looking for recommendations in the Appalachian mountains - NC-VA-TN area or as close as possible.  Living in Raleigh. Even an overnight.  Ideas?
