Trail Overview
This 2.5-mile trail near Green River, Utah, goes through a salty wash near the Green River,. From the west end, it climbs silty grey mesas on a wide trail and dips back down to the wash, with hard white salty spots. It crosses the wash several times, and heads towards colorful bluffs. It mostly goes through the wash with lots of sandy whoops and is sometimes elevated above the wash. It side-hills around the mesas. The wash has cool rock walls on either side and sections of embedded slab rock on the surface of the trail. It's flat with no ledges. There are wide sections and also much narrower sections between lots of bushes, making this ideal for UTVs.
