Land OwnerYellowwood State Forest, Indiana DNR
Miller Ridge is a combination of gravel forest road and doubletrack logging roads. It does have several steep sections, and the southern section has some water bars.
This is an active forest and riders may encounter horse riders, loggers, hunters, Purdue Research students, and Forest Service personnel. This route is also used for handicap hunter access, so you may encounter hunters on atvs during hunting season. Ultimately, this trail will provide a hub for connectivity to the singletrack trails within Yellowwood State Forest and to connectors to Brown County State Park and Hoosier National Forest.
This is backcountry riding, and riders should be prepared to be self-sufficient.
Access Info
Both ends of Miller Ridge can be accessed by Crooked Creek Road. Many riders will access Miller Ridge at its NE corner where it meets 10'O'Clock Line--the road to Brown County State Park.
