963

Trail Overview

Trail #963 is a half-mile-long ATV trail through the Gila National Forest accessed from the Sapillo Campground. It is a dirt track through a grassy, low alpine forest with ponderosa pine. The initial climb from the north end is a bit steep and rutted, with loose rocks and embedded rock layers that make it more moderate. After the short initial climb, it continues on the hilltop on a dirt two-track with some deeper ruts and minor loose rock underneath the powerlines. The trail turns off of the powerline trail at an unmarked intersection, turning right up into the hills on a rockier trail, curving between the trees, with a mix of dirt and a layer of loose rock. The motorized designation dead ends after a half mile, but it looks like the trail continues to connect to 964.
