Trail Overview
This is a short desert single track with rock obstacles and loose dirt and loose rocks. This trail is indicated as directional at the bottom on a BLM sign to only have downhill traffic, so you have to ride this one north to south, and no uphill traffic is allowed. This one drops 400 feet from the top of the mesas to the valley below on a very steep and loose rocky downhill. You get a great view of the Colorado River as you drop down, and a view of the whole valley, as you ride along one of the taller mesas in the vicinity. There are rock ledges at the top of the hill, but you can pick an easier or harder line based on where you hit the rock.
