Bennie Creek - FS 8071

Bennie Creek is a 2.5-mile trail, which is part of the Payson/Mount Nebo trail system. It begins at a 3-way intersection with Loafer Mountain singletrack and hiking trails and heads west. The trail is entirely downhill when ridden in this direction. It terminates at FS 015 (paved road). This is a shared trail with hikers and mountain bikers, and bikers are frequently using the bottom half. This section is more overgrown, with tighter blind turns and a few switchbacks. It's hard to get speed in this part with how tight the trail is and all the turns. Despite this, the trail is still more fun to ride down (west) than up (east). The ground surface is packed dirt with a lot of dust on top.
