Trail Overview

This trail is a spur that begins and ends at the Upper East Leon Trailhead. While most of the trails in the area have cattle guards, this one does not. We found the gate closed, so we left it that way after passing through. The first couple of miles meander through a wide, shallow valley with several water crossings before the trail narrows and passes through a pine forest. The trail is fairly level and minimally rocky. There are several tight turns, but we were able to navigate them in our CanAm Maverick X3 Max. The trail ends at a lovely small reservoir with great dispersed camping and picnic spots. This spur is definitely worth the detour.
