Crab Flats

Crab Flats is a smooth, hardpack dirt road with flowing terrain and minimal technical difficulty. Riders can expect a few shallow water crossings, occasionally reaching shin depth, but otherwise easy travel throughout the route. Most high-clearance vehicles can navigate this trail, with 2WD typically sufficient under normal conditions. Near the south end, the route descends along the mountainside, opening up scenic views into the canyon below. At the bottom of the trail, visitors can access Splinters Cabin and the picnic area via a short hike.
