Description
This trail works well in either direction but is particularly well-liked by those who like varied surfaces and some rugged sections. For the downhill experience loop, hike from Johnny Draw on great singletrack up and over the ridge, then head downhill. There is one short steep 2-track climb about mid-way. The last part of the ridge has sandstone steps and some tight switchbacks. At the bottom, turn right and cruise out on a doubletrack down to the hwy. Turn right to take the highway about a mile back to the parking lot.
