Trail Overview
Muleshoe is one of the longer trails on the west side of the foothills in the area. The track is an overall well-maintained single-vehicle-wide road with room to pass if needed and will be suitable for most vehicles, including high-clearance 2WD. The first 3 miles of the trail cut through private land tracts and has no notable obstacles. Once past the private land areas, drivers can expect some small wash areas and some minor rutting. The views are wide for a majority of the trail and several motorized spurs will provide for more exploring. Cell service is decent for the first portion of the route and gradually drops off towards the south. This is an out-and-back trail that ends at a locked gate on a private land boundary, but drivers can continue further south by turning onto Valley View/FSR 234B.
