Best place to park? Trails for a intermediate climber and better then intermediate going down . Thanks Dennis

The easiest place to start from is off Kinney Road.
40.907966, -74.771161

As far as mapping out a loop; this is difficult as many of the trails are unmarked. I would suggest either using Maprika as it has 99.9% of the trails in Stephens or linking up someone else's gpx or Strava. I've attached one of my Strava rides that starts at the Iron Gate.
https://www.strava.com/activities/1366574366

I typically start from here: 40.921218, -74.738520 and ride over to Stephens. Below is a Strava link starting from this lot.

If you want a tour, don't hesitate to ask. Sometimes this is better as the locals know which trails in which direction are the most funerer. Full disclosure, my fitness isn't what it used to be, so this would be an intermediate/intermediate+ pace.

Hey All. New to the forum, planning to post an intro in first timers soon.

I will be riding Stephen's for the first time on Monday.
I'm going to try to plot a gpx to follow, was thinking it should have the White Loop in there.
I will use those 2 strava rides there for reference for sure.

Anything I should def not miss?

Is parking off Kinney Road 40.907966, -74.771161 still the move?

Any locals or anyone planning to ride there early Monday morning?

Thank You!

You should be entering the race on Oct 2, and practicing the race loop!

You might say, "i have no chance of winning" - but that doesn't matter!
You will be racing someone.

That Stephen's Race Loop is pretty solid tour of the park.

Anyone have any Intel on how the area held up? Not riding around here anytime soon. Even the roads to get anywhere are gone.
