Description: This trail encompasses several trails including Burro Pass, Hazard County, and Porcupine Rim. You start out at 10000ft, and climb about another 1400 to Burro Pass, then the downhill insanity starts. Thru wooded forests, Aspen Pine lands, creeks, then down open prairie land and thru miles of technical really fast, crazy steep and slippery single track until you get to the Upper and lower Porcupine sections, then you finally end up at the Colorado River. This is the most technically diverse and by far the most fun ride I have ever done. I don't believe you could find one ride that has it all like this does.Took about 5 hours, but we stopped a lot for pictures, scenery, and just to in general take it all in. Amazing ride....

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

reviewed by cpadebo on October 13, 2009

This trail is not for the technically challenged. The uphill described at the beginning is long and steep. You will have to hike your bike up most of this part and it will be very taxing. Once you get to the top be ready for the most technically challenging downhills through the woods I've ever experienced. With constand switchbacks, loads of obstacles to negotiate and a steep hill there is plenty of opportunity to wipeout. As a not so experienced mountain biker I was demoralized by this challenge. I fell several times and was left to walk my bike more than I'd like. If you are an experienced mountain biker ready for a technical challenge you will meet your match here. Once down the hill there is this creek the trail rides along with a few crossings of the water that is cool. Be careful though, don't be like me and go head over into the water! I went in Octber and it was windy and cool here so dress accordingly.
