Cove Mountain Road South

Trail Overview

This extension completes the Forest Service 40068 trail by the name Cove Mountain Road. It runs from just south of the Koosharem Cabin Rental south to the Paiute ATV Trail Dry Creek Monroe Mountains Loop. Parts of that loop are for 50-inch vehicles, but where this trail connects, it is full-width far enough to get to FS 40076, which drops down through Koosharem Canyon, or the Wapiti Trail, which runs back west across the Paiute ATV Trail Area. This is a good road. It is graded regularly in the summertime, which means it's dusty, but it's relatively smooth. Other traffic is really the only obstacle. After a rain, it'll be muddy. The foliage is pine trees and aspens, flowering bushes and plants, and some cacti. At the bottom of the trail, you break out of the trees to some wonderful views of the surrounding area.
