These trails get ‘cakey’ for a few days after a big rain.

Description

This is probably the most fun and most scenic trail in the Canyonlands Trails. This is a great trail to combine with the Rim Trail, High Trail, and Trophy Trail to make a quick tour of the whole Canyonlands Trail System. This trail and its connectors are great for more advanced riders looking to get some nice trail time in. Rooty and rocky in sections.

There are a decent amount of boulders, but you can generally pick your way through them without too much effort.
