Description: You made it to the drainage pipe now muster up some courage and ride through it. You may have to walk a few feet once you leave the pipe. The trail climbs out of the wash on the left and when it crosses the wash again take the trail on the left up onto slickrock. Now follow the cairns and old painted dashes on the rock. Follow the trail towards Church Rocks along the rim then drop into the valley and head back to the trail you can make another loop or head back down to the wash and to the pipe that brought you there.

Fun trail with options to link up to other trails. Good access and good trail to ride if you want to break up some hours on a road trip through the region. Great local ride.

Fast, dusty singletrack leads to gnarly slickrock riding. Link up the Church Rocks loop with other trails paralleling I-15 for an epic day in the saddle. A few steep rocky sections plus a couple "sand pits" to keep you on your toes.

The trail is like a sorta like a mini Gooseberry but not as technical or difficult. An intermediate rider would have a load of fun on this trail. The problem with it is that it is short.
