Description

The North Point Loop is not quite as technical as the West Loop. North Point Loop has its challenging sections, but there are not quite as many as on the West Loop. Taking Magic Carpet to North Point Loop makes a solid lollipop ride with nice flowy singletrack and some technical challenges.

The trail has a wide variety of trail surfaces from loose rock to solid sandstone slick rock.

A very unique ride. Tricky route-finding for the newcomer, tons of fun finding endless slickrock lines, and a remote feeling. Must do. 11.6mi — 2h 20m
