Trail Overview
BLM Route 017 runs parallel to the Tabeguache in the Cactus Park area. When ridden south to north, the first 1.5 miles of the upper end are flowy and fast through loose red sand. As the trail heads north, the middle section becomes rocky with some fun features and easy but consistent rock gardens. There is a small creek crossing around the midpoint as well. The last 2 miles become less rocky and more sandy again as you go in and out of a wash before the trail ends near the Cactus Park Wilderness Trailhead. Enjoy the shade and vegetation in this last section, as it is much more green than most of the areas in Cactus Park.
