Need to Know

No services at White Rock Trailhead. West Spruce Trail is one of the chunkier trails in the area. Ride 738 as an out-and-back if you don't want to contend with West Spruce.

Description

A great trail west of Prescott that connects West Spruce Trail #264 with White Rock Trailhead and other Thumb Butte area trails.

This trail is good in either direction. From White Rock trailhead, it's a fairly steady climb to West Spruce Trail with only a couple rocky outcrops to be negotiated. As a downhill trail, some pedaling is required, though there are some fast bits — use caution as it is a bi-directional trail.

The upper part of the trail has a few switchbacks before descending into the Miller Creek drainage. The trail criss-crosses Miller Creek several times. The area is forested with ponderosa pine, as well as some oak, pinion and juniper. There is a signed intersection about 1.5 miles from the top (West Spruce Trail), stay left to follow Williams Peak Trail. You'll cross a paved road a mile further on - use caution for traffic.
