TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by DLTooley on April 30, 2012
The map at the trailhead is bad, partly because of scale issues (too small a scale to show crucial intersections), and maybe more. I did the Italian Canyon Loop from the East leg of the Mavericks Loop, which probably adds a couple of miles to the overall distance. It loops around and back on itself quite a bit, which was very confusing. I was thinking about turning around, but stuck with it and the latter part was relatively consistent with the map. FWIW, there is relatively simple access to the Boggy Draw trail from a road you come to shortly after starting to parallel the fence when doing a counterclockwise loop.

Probably the sweetest loop, overall, in the Boggy Draw area. Smooth, loopy, fast singletrack!
