Whitetail Ridge is a mountain biking route in western Kentucky, about 0.7 miles from the town of Rossford. It is a short ride of just 0.19 miles, with a total climb of 16 feet from a low point at 694 feet to a high of 731 feet. The route sits close to two other named trails, the PawPaw Path and the Osage Trail, each about 0.1 miles away. For timing, typical averages from a nearby weather station in Cincinnati show October highs around 68°F with lows near 44°F, and May highs around 75°F. That station sits a few hundred feet lower, so temperatures on the ridge run slightly cooler. Nearby options include Torrence Road, a mountain biking route in Ohio about 1.6 miles away, and the climbing at Eden Park, about 1.8 miles away. Banklick Creek, a canoeing spot, is roughly 8.8 miles off.
