Trail Overview

The south end of ATV Trail #961 starts along a fence line right next to the Sapillo Campground. It is an easy and wide dirt trail with some loose and embedded rock and shallow ruts. It meanders through the ponderosa pines and wide open fields of tall grass, with not much shade. The trail is wide for ATVs, about 10 feet across, with easy curves through the sparse forest. On the north end, it goes along another fence line, paralleling State Highway 35, then climbs up a steeper, but short, hill with loose rocks. There are a few steeper hills and descents with loose rocks and ruts throughout the short route. The northwest end connects to ATV Trail #960, and you can make a loop back to the campground.
