Trail Overview

Valley View is a spur that continues southward off of Muleshoe/FSR 234 and provides a great view of almost all the surrounding mountains in this area of the Cibola National Forest. The trail features a few short steep grades with loose rocky surfaces, small low-lying washes, and one larger wash with a soft, sandy bottom. The track is overall single-vehicle-wide with only a few spots having no room to pass due to trees and shrubs. There are larger loose rocks up to 10 inches in size scattered along portions of the trail, however, most AWD and 4x4 vehicles will have no issues. There is some minor rutting in some areas, but no other obstacles to note along the route. Cell service is in and out along the way, but overall very weak.
