The path(s) are intertwined more so than the existing map. Most areas have been upgraded and wind through parks and next to the creek. We really enjoyed the trail!
We found the park at the northern end with no trouble and felt comfortable with leaving our vehicle in the area. The sections along the water and through various parks were very nice and we appreciated the reviewer who advised starting at the northern end so we could coast back. The biggest problem was that it was very poorly marked in the middle areas and we got lost several times (not only going but also on the return trip). Part of the problem was street construction and we didn't have an in-hand map, but still, additional and better signage would be a great help.
The trail is now 5.2 miles with recent additions. Quite a bit of uphill if you are traveling in a southerly direction, but turning around at the top makes for a fun ride back! I was in town on business and although it was a bit rainy and windy, I decided to take a ride. I was expecting a 2.8 mile trail but glad to see it is expanding!
"I went to collage at Black Hills State University in Spearfish. I lived not very far from Spearfish Creek, and used parts of that trail everyday on my way to class. Being an avid bicyclist, and Kayaker, I traveled that trail from one end to the other, from its beginning in Spearfish Canyon, to its end near Lower Valley. I loved it. It was wonderfully thought out, and the people and city of Spearfish did a great job. If you're ever in that part of the Black Hills, stop in and hike, bike or blade. "
"This sidewalk-like trail stretches from Spearfish Canyon across the City of Spearfish along Spearfish Creek. Taking you through a small forested area, great fishing spots, the DC Booth Fish Hatchery and downtown, it's a great place to take a small walk or bicycle ride with kids. "
