I thought the map was pretty self-explanatory.

it's mountain bike-able, but there are so many trails up there that are way better on a mountain bike. Forest Lake is easier than most of the trails up there, but it's so strewn with boulders that it wouldn't be as fun as a nice single-track (in my opinion).
Here's a map that shows all the main trails up AF canyon for hiking/biking
According to the Google map link below, Forest Lake Trail is about 2 miles.
Here's a link to the Forest Lake trail (I think):

Just a reminder to bring your camera too, it'd be cool to have lots of pics from this event.

Is anyone planning on taking a stock vehicle? If so, make sure it either has good clearance, or make sure you don't mind dented rockers. Anything with a mile lift should be fine. My stock tacoma will make it, but I'm going to have to pick a good line.

Sweet, can't wait. I hope the dude with the diesel KJ is coming. I've never wheeled with a KJ, much less a diesel model...

That's true... After the rockers comes the frame, so I think I'm good :busted:
