Review: awesome ride to get out of the heat. a total of 9 miles with combining Turkey Flats, Hay press, Ridge trail & Fruita Res. #1.
The uphill was tough due to the amount of roots on the trail. but the downhill was great.

Review: Great trail to ride if you have been doing desert rides all summer. If you like the classic mountain singletrack in the timber with tech climbs, root drops and shade this for you.
Review: Still a little muddy in places and some trees across the trail. Nice easy singletrack through a beautiful forest.
