Trail Overview

Spring, Summer, Fall - mostly easy trail with some great side spurs with awesome views. Along this route, you will also see an old run-down cabin near the Sawmill tank and an old homestead North of the Timber Mesa Trailhead, which we call Twin Chimneys. Parts of this trail are shared with maintained Forest Roads, and you may see 4wd trucks, UTV's, ATV's and motorcycles. Several sections of this trail are UTV/ATV and Motorcycle only.

Difficulty

Mostly easy dirt with some rocks. Muddy in the rainy and snow seasons. Trails get tore up from vehicles trying to pass so we suggest to please stay out of this area in the wet times.

Access Description

Muliple trailheads. The best Trailhead is Timber Mesa Trailhead off of Porter Mountain Road. Then there is the Panorama Trail Head with minimal parking and you will find that trailhead frequented with horse trailers. Then in the North side is the entrance off the 60 across from Mormon Lake road. If you go through the gate and in a little ways you will find parking for a trailer here and there.
