Trail Overview

Route 31 begins towards the end of Cactus Park Road. The trail can be ridden in either direction and forms a loop. When ridden clockwise, the trail begins as an easy climb before reaching a gate around mile 2. The mile after the gate is the most challenging as the trail becomes steep, narrow, and loose. At this time, there are great views of the Grand Mesa and Gunnison River to the east. The remaining miles of trail are generally easy and feature short sections that are rocky and steep. The trail flattens out and widens as you reach the hiking/equestrian Route 37. At the next intersection, a left will take you on the Tabeguache and a right will quickly take you back to the start of the loop. This trail should be manageable in a stock high-clearance 4WD with a skilled driver.
