Need to Know

There are no signs for any of the roads or trails in this area. Please respect private property--it is usually marked. If in doubt, do not deviate from your GPS line. This trail has been established for many years and is therefore legal under current BLM management.

Description

This trail follows a mesa top and flat areas through the pinyon-juniper. It's the most moderate trail in this area, with some sandy and rocky bits.

The grade follows the overall slope of the Uncompahgre Plateau, a nice 3% or so drop that is perfect for ripping.
