A new trail is open out near Rocky Top. 1 km of new singletrack that starts at the White ski trail. To find it, as you ride out to Rocky Top on the ski trail you climb the big gravelly hill. At the top of that hill the White ski trail leaves to the right. Tuck in there and the trail is on the left. It is signed and is flagged but will be more thorough with arrows in the next couple of days. It takes you along a rock ridge and pops you out at the start of Rocky Top.
The trail is still rough, but will get better with riding and after I do the fine finishing work.
The Forest Lea mountain bike recreation trails are developed and maintained by volunteer riders in the Ottawa Valley. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK!! trails are located at 1846 (the end of) Forest Lea Rd., West of Pembroke, exit S. off Hwy. 17, travel 5 km to end of pavement.

It's official - Jolly Roger new trail
The new singletrack down to the parking lot is now officially named: Jolly Roger, thanks to some modern art by Glenn L.
Watch for poison ivy in one small section - I put a caution sign on it today. It is the only PI in all of Forest Lea, but won't be a problem assuming you can stay on the trail for 20metres.
Find the new trail after Flat Pass by following the red arrows.
