Trail Overview

Stansbury Front is a 22-mile-long trail that travels north-south along the Stansbury Mountain range. This trail is point-to-point and ends very far from where you begin. Most riders get to the end, turn around, and ride another 22 miles back to their vehicle. Allow 4+ hours for the full out-and-back. The track is a bizarre combination of smooth, flowy single track through dense woods and sections of rocky desert-type riding. The dirt in the wooded portions is excellent and features some larger roots to get over. The surface outside of the woods is dusty and has a lot of sharp embedded and loose rocks. There's one rock ledge near the northern end that can be difficult to go down/up. The entire trail essentially side-hills the mountain range, so there are a lot of up and downhills. None are very steep. Overall elevation ranges from 6,100 to 8,400 feet.

Difficulty

This is a narrow trail in some areas with loose and embedded rock sections. One rock ledge is 2-3 feet in height and has no bypass. There are several large roots in the woods where the dirt is eroding, making this section more difficult.

Trail is dry from West Canyon to Hickman pass. About 21 mile ride(one way) until you hit snow. You can get through with a lot of pushing and dragging and brapping!

multiple downed trees, which is fun but for some riders could be very difficult. We started from the south end and headed north, about 8.5 MI into the trail there is a north face that is still completely covered in DEEP snow. Unfortunately had to turn back.
