      If you’ve made the mistake of driving here, at least hit this trail. Some red dirt and for a split second you think you might be in Moab/Sedona/Fruita but then suddenly your back on the canal trail.

      Not as fun as the Sandstone Meadow loop, but still a fun ride. Flowy downhill on the way back down with some beautiful views. Rode clockwise and hit the small additional loops on the way back.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
