Went to Crow Canyon MX in Uhrichsville, Ohio last week for two days - did a bit of tent camping at a nearby campground.
Crow Canyon is 400 acres of trails and MX. The big track is 1.5 miles long and has a KILLER uphill section - exit the bottom corner in 2nd, full throttle 3rd and 4th gear climbing the hill - I'm guessing the hill is 400-500 yards long. I can't tell you how cool it felt when I finally nailed all five of the jumps on the uphill smoothly (given the wet conditions, it was a bit hard to get traction in places).
The track was a bit wet from rain on Wednesday, but was still a blast. Safe, challenging and fast. Lots of hillclimbs and single track for the woods guys. My buddy was on an XR400 and he quite enjoyed the trails and hillclimbs and said he'd go back again.
The kids/pitbike track is very long and nicely done with elevation changes. My daughter loved it and asked me last night when we were going up there again.
I'd highly recommend a visit to those of you in the area. Open 7 days a week until winter - 6 days a week in winter. There are 3 or 4 other tracks within 45 minutes of Crow.
