Loafer Mountain - FS 8098

Loafer Mountain is a short trail in the Payson/Mount Nebo singletrack system. It's 1.1 miles long and starts in a small pull-off on FS 015 (paved road). It can be easy to miss if there are cars in the parking area. From here, the track drops down into the woods and travels north until it intersects the Bennie Creek Trail. This is a wide and well-groomed trail. There's an early shallow creek crossing and a few roots along two uphill sections. The overall elevation gain is approximately 200 feet. The ground surface is packed dirt with no rocks. This is a shared trail and is a popular hiking route. Be careful with blind turns.
