The CAMBA network spreads across the Chequamegon forest between Hayward and Cable, one of the largest trail systems in the Midwest and the home of the Chequamegon 40. The riding is classic northwoods — sandy loam under hardwood and pine, rolling glacial terrain, long connectable loops rather than tight stacked laps. It drains well and rides soft rather than muddy, and the season runs from a late thaw to a hard freeze.
