Trail Overview
This entire trail is road-width, although designated for dirt bikes only. It starts off Sardina Canyon Road (684) in a wash full of small rocks, and rides north towards some rocky outcroppings, riding past the entrance for 485. The trail surface is constantly full of small loose rocks and shallow ruts, but remains wide the whole time, with intermittent slab rock as well. Parts of it are an old shelf road repurposed into a dirt bike trail. It winds around the rolling hills, lined with mesquite trees, crossing small ravines and washes. The trail dead ends after two miles with a view of some of the nearby red rocky cliffs in the distance, a bit past the red spring. You can ride this as an out-and-back, or connect via 484A to single-track trail 484.
