Steamboat Hills, Galena Motocross Track |
| DESCRIPTION |
This area consists of a makeshift motocross track, a few rocky trails and a large staging area. Debris and broken glass are scattered throughout the area, particularly at the main staging area where target shooting is common. There are no actual motorcycle trails, just wide and rocky roads and there is nothing too challenging or interesting. There are no trees or shade and no services. The main entrance road is a little rough with several deep ruts to avoid.
