Hog Canyon-BLMHC3

Trail Overview

Hog Canyon BLMHC3 loops from the intersection with BLMHC1 south to Hog Point on the western end of Tom's Canyon. The trail then runs the northern rim of the canyon eventually turning back to the north and intersecting BLMHC1. The trail is primarily a sand track, rocky track, and some slick rock climbs or descents. The trail is listed as more difficult on the Utah Division of Parks and Recreation trail. The Hog Canyon OHV Trail System is a network of technical motorized trails north of Kanab, UT offering OHV enthusiasts roughly 30 miles of trails through spectacular terrain ranging from easy sand to extreme rock crawling. The Hog Canyon OHV trails navigate steep inclines, rocky surfaces, narrow passages, and deep sand and are suitable for four-wheel-drive vehicles, ATVs, UTVs, dirt bikes, and other off-highway vehicles. They are not recommended for street or two-wheel-drive vehicles. Hiking, biking, and equestrian use of the trails is allowed, and motorized users should exercise situational awareness as users may not expect to encounter other user groups. The trail system is primarily accessed by trailheads located on its eastern and western entrances. The western trailhead includes a staging area and an informational kiosk. The eastern trailhead includes an informational kiosk but no other amenities. Riders arriving from the east generally stage vehicles at the Crocodile Staging Area.
