Crockertown is a short, moderate mountain biking route in northern Maine, set within the Penobscot Nation. The ride is an out-and-back of about 0.36 miles, with a high point of 1,238 feet and a low of 1,205 feet. The climb is flat, and the total elevation gain and loss are each about 35 feet, so the route is more about the ride than the climb. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from the nearby Long Falls Dam weather station show July highs around 77°F with lows near 55°F, while winter highs stay in the 20s. The route sits close to other trails. Narrow Gauge Pathway and Jerusalem Town are each about 0.1 mile away, and the Sargent Trail is about 0.4 mile off. Climbers can find Tufulio's Boulders about 3.5 miles away.
