2010, We have started a newer trail system at Duncan lake, red ,white and blue trails. Red will take you from teh camp ground, to the picnic table, then to the water at the lake on the south side. Which will take not more than three hours. We will have milage posted at a later date.Kathe Wells has wanted this since she joined the club. A blue trail will take you farther on to the eagle look out on the south side of the lake over looking Duncan Lake dam and the pavillion on the North.Very simple riding. The white trail will be on the North side of the lake. these trails will not include all of the trails just the basic trails , to take new comers around the lake to get their baring. I am going to put up corrodinates also on this page , when I get them, that way with your GPS you can go right to them. I am even going to hide some things for equicaching as well, that should be fun.
We have been getting so many new riders, some have had trouble finding the south side picnic tables, that is our plan to help those riders. When they get to the picnic tables they can turn around and follow the same trail back or take the blue trail just to the water.then back to camp on North side.
If you can look at the pictures I have posted about the blissard of 2010 , we will have to work hard to get
the trails in shape for our ride in April but we will ""get er done"?
I hope you have as much fun riding at Duncan lake as I have over the years. I still love riding there after more than 40 years. We are very blessed to have such a gret place to ride so close.

OLD NEWS
2009 If you haven't been at the lake in awhile ,we have been working on the trails they are really looking good, Brenda, Tim and Leroy have been working a couple of week ends now. Rita Foster has done a great job on her trail around the lakes north side.
we have seen many signs of wild pigs, I have seen tracks along the fence on the north some riders have really seen the little pigs, about 25 little ones that means there are parents somewhere so be careful while riding.
DLHC has givin close to $7000.00 to charities in Duncan and Stephens county we are very proud of that dollar figure.
We have two trail rides a year spring and fall , we also get together and go riding in Palo Duro Canyon, Cap rock Canyon, Valle Vidal, Eastern Ok and parts in between. But mostly we enjoy the Duncan lake , we try to keep it as clean as possible, we have porta pottys on the south side for your convience , picnic tables after about a 2 hour ride around the lake to get to area, so you can visit and rest up before the trip back to camp.
Bald Eagles are visiting between Nov and March we have seen them this year and the Christmas bird count saw 7.....they are easy to spot, that big white head really stands out in the dead trees along the lake
Trails are very well marked around the lake or out in the open, ride out one way and come back a different way. There is always an easy way to get around a steep place if you don't like to go steep.
I hope you have fun at our lake and enjoy it as much as we do.
fishing dock, inclosed fish house, disc golf, boating and fishing is heaven forbid you don't like to ride.
