Wire Mesa Completed in December 2016. It is intermediate by design with a few expert sections, all with ride arounds. If Guacamole and JEM had a trail baby, this is what it would look like

I rode this with my wife and kids age 10-16, but it was difficult for them. Ended up walking several areas and probably took almost 3 hours. I would have loved it otherwise, though! Incredible views. We went clockwise.

Lots of talk about the road in - it’s washboard in places but mostly good.
The trail is pretty amazing, the views an absolutely stunning! The exposure is manageable but you are riding pretty close to the cliff edge in several places. Mix of easy sand/dirt trail with technical rocky roll overs and climbs. I found it hard to maintain momentum because I was stopping so often for photos. My Pup Dre great company……..
If you are in South west Utah don’t pass this one by.

Great upper intermediate fun in either direction. Clarification on access: road is beautifully graded for 2WD passenger car access from north (Rockville) entire way to south at Hiway 59.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
