  • Anyone Ride the Essex Chain Yet?

    Curious how it is. I just read that the Essex Chain is open for camping.
    I assume that roads for vehicle access are also open for bikes.
    Looking at a map it looks like there is a parking area at the end of the Goodnow Flow road. I think you can park there and ride your bike into the lakes.

    Anyone know for sure or better yet tried it?

    While you can ride a bike where motorized vehicles are allowed, for the moment I don't believe you can ride the interior roads. The initial public access is fairly limited regarding camping (advance permit necessary) and biking.

      OK, thanks. I just looked at the map and saw that bikes would not have nearly as much access as horses anyway. Only Lake bike would go by is third.
