From the top, it looks like 2 large fangs and the trail was built during the whole chupacabra craze back in the early 2000's. Trail is mostly hard packed dirt though there is loose gravel and some silt that washes from above. The whole trail is built on a mountain so you will have 3 climbs and 3 descents.

Access Info

It is part of the trail system and it's entry and exit are contiguous to other trails. It can be reached via the West Access Road. Connecting trails are Razorback and Paintball Loop.

Disclaimer

Look out for sand spots as the silt washes down from uphill during rain season.
