Trail Overview

Sulphur Peak #5237 is an intermediate 2-mile-long ATV loop that begins with a steep climb on a dirt two-track off Forest Service Road #50177. The climb is covered in small loose rock and maintains a steady grade, though it is less difficult than the climb on the neighboring trail #5238. The trail crests at a ridgeline on one of the taller peaks in the area, offering expansive mountain views. From there, it follows a rocky ridgeline over rolling hills before descending back down. The descent is less rocky, but just as steep in spots. The route stays mostly in wide open terrain, with wide meadows and exposed hilltops, offering full sun exposure and minimal tree cover. The combination of elevation and views makes it a scenic loop ride with moderate challenge from the climbs.
