Dirty Bismark

You can start at the !Marshall Mesa Trailhead as shown here, but there are numerous trailheads along the loop for access. The route description is clockwise from Marshall Mesa.Start by heading east on Marshall Valley. You'll come to the intersection with Community Ditch, but stay straight to head east on Cowdrey Draw. You'll cross a small side road where the trail turns into Mayhoffer Singletree. Keep following the obvious route. This turns into Meadowlark. At the bottom of the hill is a small parking lot with restrooms. From here, turn right to climb up the doubletrack Coalton. Watch for cows and prairie dogs. Coalton will take a sharp left at the top of the hill and wind back toward 128 where you'll find another small parking area. From here, the trail becomes the High Plains trail with finally some nice flowing singletrack. At the end of this singletrack section is the Greenbelt Plateau parking area. At the parking area, turn right to follow the doubletrack up the hill. At the very end of Greenbelt Plateau you'll encounter a small rock feature and intersect with Community Ditch. Turn left onto Community Ditch until you reach the intersection for Coal Seam. Take a hard right to follow the slightly rock Coal Seam back down to the !Marshall Mesa Trailhead.

The Morgul Bismarck is a relatively famous stage from the Red Zinger / Coors Classic road cycling race from the 1970's and 1980's. Over time, trails along the perimeter of this classic road route have been built, making the Dirty Bismarck MTB trail.
