Riding this trail as a climb from Las Llajas Canyon Trail to connect to Sand Castle Trail. This is a ball buster of a climb and all but the fittest of xc guys or e-biker's will be able to sustain climbing this grade to the Sand Castle intersection. This trail is best ridden downhill only.

Access Info

This trail can be accessed from either Sand Castle Trail or Las Llajas Canyon Trail.

      Good trail from Las Llajas and all rideable up to the mine and old excavator. Fun descent back down from there I tried the section north from the Vista Yeti but only got a short distance. It started to get overgrown and there were no other tire tracks so I turned around. Also it looks like it enters the private ranch on the north and so I didn't want to go down and then have to come back up.

      This is the Coquina Mine trail not a "Yeti Cave".

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
