Once you reach the West Cucamonga Truck Trail in the west, you can not continue onto the Sapphire Falls Trail as the area remains closed.

Description

The climbing adventure begins off the top of Archibald Avenue and Spector Ct past the gate and travels through the Demens Canyon for the first two miles to reach the great views at the top of Angalls Canyon. From there,the wide singletrack begins a zig-zagging fast descent through the winding switchbacks.

Next, you'll come across a portal-like entrance over a small stream that takes you into a rocky singletrack climb and a singletrack escapade passing two gates and what seems to be Scooby Doo's missing Mystery Machine van crashed in the canyon (see photo).


Can be ridden past the West Cucamonga Truck Trail Road to connect with other trails. This trail can be ridden either way

Not very exciting by mountain bike standards but great for a quickie fat burner ride. Would definitely not recommend in the summer. 5mi — 1h 00m
