Trail Overview

Duma Mine Cutoff trail is a 1.4-mile-long intermediate single track in the White Wash area that goes over a mix of wide open desert, sandy washes, and red sandstone buttes. The east end starts out as a sandy trail on flat ground through a wash with whoops, sand, embedded rock slab, and nice views towards the sandstone cliffs that you'll be climbing up. It starts climbing up the rock slab and is marked with signposts saying to stay on the rock until the next marker. There isn't any white paint on this trail to follow; you have to keep looking for the next trail marker. It continues as a fun trail on top of the slab, going up and over small hills of sandstone, with only a couple of steeper spots, but nothing as hard as Mary's or Red Butte Trails. This one dead ends at Duma Point Road, so you can either ride it as an out-and-back or take Duma Point Road back to Road 336.
