Does anyone run or ride out here?  I'm looking for a 4-6 mile trail run if anyone has any suggestions.  Also, if there's another good 4-6 mile trail run in the Clemson area, I'd love to hear about it.  Thanks.

i run/ride out there.  here is a map:

http://www.sctrails.net/Trails/MAPS/IsaqueenaLakemtb%20map.html

i park at the parking area on isaqueena dam road, then take the trail out of the back entrance of the parking area, not the trail entrance where all the signage is.  from there i take i stay left on the trail, and come out on the lake trail.  follow it all the way around the lake to the dam, where the trail ends.  run up the giant hill on the gravel road, and at the top on the left side of the road there will be a trail entrance.  i get back on the trail there and follow it back to the parking area, it follows the main road for the most part, if you come to any forks on this trail stay right or you will end up back down at the lake again. 

if i remember correctly it is 4.5 miles in length. smooth trail for the most part, not too many roots/rocks, especially around the lake.

There is also Fant's Grove. I don't know the website to the map right off hand but you can google it. The trails are very technical, but there is a lot of them and it's not very crowded. It does have horse traffic though.
