The Igo trail navigates through the aptly named Stoney Gulch, connecting Mule Ridge Trail with Princess Ditch. A great bypass for the steep Cosmos. The Igo trail is a lot of fun to go down, but please keep in mind it is a two way trail so expect other trail users coming up. Igo was completed on March 20th of 2024. It was fully planned, funded and built by Redding Trail Alliance with the support of some amazing trail advocates

      Not even remotely as fun a descent as the other options to the south that spit you out onto the ditch. Once was plenty
