Trail Overview

Take this trail through a beautiful, winding canyon. Early on, you will have the option to continue straight to an overlook, or take a left and view the end of the extreme 21 Road trail.

Road was recently graded, very smooth. Only saw a few dirt bikes around no other vehicles. Very easy drive. Great view at the top, stopped for lunch break. Watch out for cows!

Picked up the trail off 18 Rd & BLM Route 174. BLM 174 was dry and dusty and 16 Road/Gulch had some deep ruts but great views.
