Trail Overview

This is a good option for connecting Mesa County Roads 25 and 27 1/4 as opposed to backtracking entirely to town. There are other routes in the vicinity to explore, though most either dead end or simply disappear in the cliffs. This is route is mostly easy, flat dirt road, with only a few instances of larger rocks, ruts and washes. There is one slightly knife edge moment where wheel placement should not be ignored. Monitoring weather prior to use recommended. Pack out what you pack in. Be mindful of free-ranging livestock.

Exactly as described, a little mud due to recent rains, but a good quick evening wheel

Lots of sharp rocks and steep sections. No clearance issues. Could be made easier by airing down.
