Trail Overview
Really fun sand wash that has a few connectors that will get you back on to the main trail/ road. It has a few tight turns and high side that make it narrow in a few spots. The loop seems to have a section that seems to be newer. It stars off of Notam road and goes all the way around to sandy creek. It has a few technical sections I would rate as a three. Very cool trail with good views of Capitol Reef. To the west it reminded us of some scenes from Star Wars.
