Trail Overview
As you start on the trail, a wide panorama of Mesquite, Nevada, and Scenic, Arizona, makes a beautiful view. Behind these townships, you can see Virgin Peak and much of the Virgin River. Many short offshoot trails will get closer to the edge, but beware that much of the mesa is undercut and a long way down. Scenic vistas along the western rim provide views of Toquop Wash, Mormon Mesa, and Mormon Mountain beyond. As you come back around to the Mesquite side, be sure to take the short offshoot trail to the American Flag. After checking out the views by the flag, go back to following the loop trail and you will end up by the gate where you started. If you need to shorten the trip, many access routes will cut across the mesa and get you back to the cattle gate.
