Chutes and Ladders Mountain Biking Trail
|
You'll quickly discover how this trail got its name as you pedal up and down over frequent humps in the rocky desert landscape. Rocky singletrack and patches of juniper forest, along with great views of the Book Cliffs, make this trail a favorite of local riders.
