Trail Overview

An easy trail through wide-open prairie land that seems to stretch to the horizon. Pronghorn, coyote, and rabbits are often seen. Cell service is spotty but available in more than 50% of the trail. Sunrise and sunset are the best times on this trail as the landscape really comes to life in the golden hour. The midday sun is intense and there is no shade. There is a portion on the north end of the trail that passes through an easement on private property. Do not go off the trail in this section.
