Trail Overview

Singletrack dirt bike and mountain bike trail. Descends towards the Colorado river with only a few climbs and you return to the trailhead on Third Flats Road.The start of the trail has tight turns through some rocks and desert trees. The first mile being the most difficult. Then the trail becomes a fast smooth single track with a hill climb near the end. Take Nut-in-2-It at the junction and return up the hill to the trailhead. Great place to practice.

Difficulty

The rock and sand fields can be tricky to navigate in the first half of the trail. Route finding is easy with all the trails being well marked.
