Description

The wide path and good visibility lends itself to fast riding, but watch out for the wash crossings because they can be fairly technical after strong rains. Keep your eyes peeled for the labyrinth of old tin cans just beyond the mine property boundary fence as you turn back toward the Scenic Loop. This trail is best ridden west to east.
