Lone Cactus Loop Details
The Cactus Loop is around 6 Miles long, consisting of winding and rolling hills, singletrack. I would categorize the skill level of this trail at a low intermediate for difficulty. Mostly due to ruts from the rain, rocky descents and climbs, and the Cacti. Many beginners start here but they are instantly challenged. The Cactus Loop can connect to the Bunny Trail, Rez Loop, Christmas Tree and the Burro Loop. Right turns will take you to one or the other named trails or stay left to continue on the Cactus Loop. There are a few tricky sections to be aware of, especially during monsoon season (July-September). Watch the wash crossings, dips and "The Shaft" as they can be steep, rutted or washed out.
Access Info
Trail is 40 yards south of the intersection at Irvington and Harrison Rd. Park in the lot or dirt and jump on the Paved Bike Path. You will see a picnic table on the left and the trail is just to the right of that area and a sign. The Cactus Loop ends just behind the picnic table.
