Description
Boulder City lives up to its name! Enjoy all the awesome rock formations along the way if you dare take your eyes off the trail ahead. To access the trail, jump on Rock Island Railroad and follow it for about 0.2 miles, where you'll see the sign for Boulder City. Starting it off is a difficult, but fairly short, climb through multiple switchbacks. After reaching the top, you'll get a break from the rocks, but not for long. Shortly after starting the descent, there is a steep section of tricky trail awaiting you. Once you're past that section, the track gets a little easier to look up from.
