Trail Overview
This 3.4-mile 4x4 route starts on County Road 240 and goes south until it dead-ends at a cliff over Butler Wash. The cliff comes up suddenly, so don't go too fast at the end of the trail. This trail is less trafficked and more faint through soft dirt. It has lots of dips into ravines and washes with sand and rock slabs. Part of it is elevated above a ravine above Butler Wash. It has tight corners as it goes through sagebrush and pinyon pine trees. It also has wider sections along the rim with slab rock and loose rocks in the trail. There are long slabs of slickrock, but no ledges. This is a scenic trail, as it has some nice views of the canyons along the way.
