“The singletrack here is the real draw as it offers everything from wicked fast juniper dodging on fast and flowy trails to major rock obstacles on the 'Black Hole’ trail,” writes Fisch. "If you’re intrepid enough to find this very remote place, you’ll likely have it all to yourself,” he concludes.

The trail system is divided into four stacked loops: The Short Loop, Long Loop, Outer Limits, and Area 51. Black Hole is a short, optional add-on found just off the Short Loop. The route mapped here covers the very best singletrack in the trail system, which is found in the lower stretches of the network. Referred to as "Long Loop," the singletrack here is well-ridden, creating a fast, flowing trail that dips and bobs through the junipers, intermittently running over exposed slickrock slabs. These slickrock slabs create superb mountain bike playgrounds with plenty of alt lines to explore and get creative on.

The primary playground zone is known as "Black Hole." If you're not feeling up for the challenge, this small slickrock bowl can easily be bypassed by sticking to the Short Loop. Or, if you're really digging these cool rock rolls and drops, you can spend an hour sessioning the many lines in the Black Hole—it just might suck you in!

You might not realize it, but as you continue along the far side of the Long Loop, you're slowly gaining elevation. All of that mellow elevation gain pays off in a hurry as you enjoy a tight, twisty, flowy romp back to the trailhead, slaloming through junipers and popping off of small rock drops. This artistic singletrack experience is a true treat—be sure to savor it!
