Will I cross HM Trail at Tiny's??

I am planning a ride from Mountain Top Cabins to Welch and would like to stick non HM trails to avoid any hassles.

Planned route using BobT Maps:
Stairs Bypass
Pinnacle Creek Campground
Beer Can Alley
Tiny's
Welch Main Trail  
Eat at Diner

My concern is around Tiny's it looks like I may intersect a HM trail, is this correct?  Just worried about coming around a turn and being stopped by a Ranger.......

Trip Back:
Main Welch Trail
The View
Creek Bypass or Tiny's
Upper Wagon Wheel
Soggy Bottom
Mountain Top

Any advice would be much appreciated.

I think u are on county road when u ride by tiny's farm

It is a road so I don't think they are bothering people coming through there anymore.When they first put the connector in there they were hassling people but I have not heard of that in a long time since I figured out someone fought it and they lost.

Thanks guys. So sound like as long as I have helmet on I am good to go. Don't need any cooler searches or riding w out pass.

I wouldn't sweat it if your on the road for a little bit. If he does go to stop u then just hit warp drive and say bye bye baaaaaaaby.  

Roughly how long does it take to make tht run to welch from stair steps?  Let's say with out stopping and screwing around like I normally do.

Hour and a half maybe??  Bobby may know better.

That is a shared road, so I believe the HMT folks can't give you a hard time about permits, but i maybe wrong.

There was a big stink when that connector first opened with rangers stopping people until they conceded that it was a public road. They gave us a hard time when we went thru there right after it opened 'cause we didn't have passes, helmets and some had beer in their coolers which they admitted but we told them no search without a warrant. That's the only time I have seen a ranger on the trails.

Thanks guys!!  I head down May 30 and can't wait, have not been down since last august. Hopefully my riding bud gets his atv back together.

I'll be there sat and Sunday

All depends on how fast you ride some people may take 3 hours   

Takes me a good 1hr 1/2 from tineys. Gonna make that run Sunday. Be down in the creek area saturday

Where you stayin?  We will be at mountain top cabin.

Say hi to Ferrell for me!

Who is Ferrell?

runs Mt Top Cabins

Cabins work good but man that guys trailer is a tad messy.

yea he don't stress much!  

Made it to Welch and back and it took us probably 3 or 4 hours based on stopping on messing around.  Trip went well except for bud rolling his atv off the trail in under first mile of weekend.....  Luckily he wasn't hurt and bike came out fine too for flipping over about 8 times......  Scared him big time i think..

Glad he is ok
