Great vid- the map overlay and altimeter are perfect! Thanks for the look- headed there this weekend if its not a swamp.
Thanks! I hope you had a great ride!
Awesome video man! Going there this morning with my Husky TE300
Thanks! I know mine aren't super exciting but when I got back into riding I could never find videos showing how a place really flows at length so I started posting the full rides.
So what did you think of The Cliffs? How was the ride?
@@blaynem man it sucked haaha. It was sooo muddy that we couldn’t go anywhere up the hill without sliding all over the place. We finally made our way back to the parking lot and went right instead of left and stayed low and it was a lot of fun! I switched over to the quad before going back up to the mud lol
@@blaynem hoping to go this Sunday again and I’m hoping that the mud will be a bit more dry so we can try your little trail out on the bikes!

Not sure how I missed seeing your video comment until now... but yeah Cliffs is a mess if it's wet. On the bikes we can at least dive off to some more protected single track but those main/wide trails are a disaster when it's muddy. Hopefully you got some dry rides in since that short video from 3 mo ago!
Lot of fun at the Cliffs. Remember a KDX swallowed by one of those waterholes. To be avoided. Too bad its 1:45 away.
Yeah, I'm right there, too... it's about 2:15 for me to get to the Cliffs.
My bike was halfway underwater when i went. I fractured my foot because of the excessive water. I recommend going when dry. If it wet ride at your own risk
Yeah this place is a mess in the wet. When it is wet and you're on a bike you have to get to the single track and trails less traveled, and those are harder to find if not with someone really familiar with the place. I'm not a fan of it when wet. Best wishes on your recovery.
Nice! Always wondered what the Cliffs were about. Blayne, what's the device you're wearing that gives speed and elevation?
Thanks! I'm wearing a GoPro Hero 9 Black camera, chin mounted with a ProShot helmet mount. With the GPS setting in the camera settings enabled, it captures the speed and elevation automatically. To extract the sensor data and turn it into an overlay, I use a program called Telemetry Overlay.
@@blaynem Very cool! Thanks.
Can you go in there with some jeeps?
Jeeps are no longer allowed. They once were, but the place changed hands a few years ago and with it came participation in the IL OHV program...which provides grant money for the place, but then will only allow bikes, quads, and sxs/utv. Actual vehicles/jeeps no longer allowed. (and if you check their FB page you'll see some former customers are still quite upset about that.)
Those trails stink, dangerous
Granted it's been a month since you left this comment, but if you remember... what trails seemed dangerous? I assume it was the wide main trails where SXS go fast or the wrong way? Those are the ones that get me. The narrow timber trails, even when steeper, I feel safer on.
