Moderately challenging single track that can be ridden as an out and back or connected to a series of dirt road/trail options for a longer route. Typical Grand Mesa riding with a fair number of volcanic rocks, not the best flow trail out there, but has some nice scenery and is a great way to escape the heat in the valley during summer Little elevation gain and loss.
