February 21, 2021Lovely, easy to follow loop. I went on 02/21 and the trail was nice and dry. The parking lot was a little tricky to find- look for a small driveway and whit trailhead sign on the right as you come up Little Park Road from GJ. Will be back with my bike!
February 16, 2021Currently pretty muddy on the “2nd half” of the hike (when starting counter-clockwise). I would suggest doubling back somewhere around the 2 mile mark
January 31, 2021My soul is full! Great hike, much more muddy than anticipated, but it made for some good technical passes. Definitely will be back!

December 5, 2020Trail was amazing. Contrary to Leah’s crappy reviews most of the trails in this area are beautiful.
November 14, 2020Perfect after work hike. Not too busy.
November 13, 2020September 7, 2020Warning - this is not a beginner mountain biking trail! I am a nervous beginner and walked/pushed close to half of the ride. There are lots of rocks and narrow passages. Had several locals ask me why we were here and suggested Kokopeli or Road 18 instead. With that said, it is close to town, quite pretty, and easy to see people coming. And I’m glad I did it. We “rode” clockwise and took the cutoff via Clunker. Early in the morning, the first 1/3 is in the shade. It is interesting terrain and I would return to hike it.
July 23, 2020This trail is great for a quiet walk or trail run. Quirky with its added buckets as guide cairns and a beautiful view of the Monument and Bookcliffs.
July 5, 2020Great hike with nice breezes
May 20, 2020Great for trail running, easy kids hike, or mountain biking.
March 15, 2020Good beginner biking trail
August 13, 2019Great Trail (not very difficult) especially for trail runners, parents with kids, and those new to mountain biking. great view of the Bookcliffs from about the halfway mark. not quite as pretty as some hikes, but definitely one to check out.

First to ReviewGood for mountain biking and trail running. Not a great hiking trail.
