Trail Overview
Babbits Checkers is a wide, beautiful, easy trail that cuts across the expansive pastures from Hwy 180 to the Kaibab National Forest. There are no obstacles on this trail, as well as no cell service, so offline maps are recommended. There are sections of rock and mild erosion, so this isn't necessarily a speed run, but the views are pretty amazing. Along this trail, you might see elk, deer, antelope, jackrabbits, and prairie dogs. There are cattle that graze here as well, so keep an eye out.
