Directions I75 SOuth to exit 49 hang a right off the exit watch for Sheltowee signs (Cant miss them)

Follow the 4x4 trail but becareful to follow the Sheltowee Trace it is not mark well as you make your way threw the maze of 4x4 trails. This section see's heavy use by 4x4 some great veiws from the ridge top and amazing sand stone sections. Once you hit the gravel road hang a left and look to you right for the Trace to go off the road and become single track this single track section is one of KY finest and most Beautiful sections of the Trace.

Looks like the USFS is tying really hard to get the 4x4 guys and girls off of Cromer ridge. The entrance from 75 was blocked by a huge downed tree (I think this was natural) but the othe entrance from Falls City rd was block for 200 ards by stumps piles of dirt and many big trees. It was not just the entrance to Cromer but all the other off shoots too. They have also pushed dirt over a bunch of the stone features and plant grass this all has been done in the last month. Just hope they keep leting us ride there I know there is another way in I notice one truck driving around. Just a note
