Description

Cat in the Hat is much like Bunny but steeper with higher steps and obstacles. I found myself walking a good bit of it to get to the top. Steer your bike down this trail and you may be in for a good time. The hoof wear on the trail seems to lessen about half way up.

Cat in the Hat connects with the Outer Loop at both ends, Fossil Canyon, 1st Finger, 2nd Finger & Kibble-n-Bits at the top.

There is a connector to Fossil Canyon about half way up if you want a change.

Climbing any of the Cowboy Trails is tiring for the legs but delightful to the eyes.
