Jekyll and Hyde is a short mountain biking route in Lowes Creek County Park in Wisconsin, on county land. It is a short climb of about 0.15 miles, rising from a low point of 855 feet to a high point of 882 feet, with a total gain of about 12 feet and a small drop of about 11 feet on the way back. That makes it a place to fit into a ride rather than a destination in itself, and it sits among a cluster of other mountain biking routes. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Eau Claire show July highs around 82°F with lows near 62°F, while January highs average about 25°F. Several other trails start close by. Fence Trail and Mind Games are each about 0.1 mile away, and Missing Link and Willinator are about 0.2 mile away. For rock climbing, Mt. Simon is about 5 miles off.
