TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

Note --- this review only applies Pass Mountain Trail at Usery Park --- Do you know how you get good judgement? Through experience. Do you know how you get experience? Through bad judgement. On my first ride in the Mesa area, a friend and I decided to tackle the 7.5-mile Pass Mountain trail at Usery Park. We're not rank beginners, but thankfully we ran into an expert rider on the trail who told us we were headed into terrain even more demanding than what we'd already seen. So we turned back, but that's where the bad judgement took over. She wrecked, then I wrecked. I went over the bars, and lost a fair bit of my hide. When they tell you Pass Mountain is for experts, believe it. It's beautiful country, however. In a day or so, I'm going back for another ride, this time on the gentler terrain.

I'm new to Mtn. biking and Blevins was perfect for me, just enough to learn how to change gears, turn, find a line to ride and try not to fall off my bike or plunge into a cactus. Moonstruck was easy and fun This is a great trail for beginners.

Parked at staging area and started with Blevins and worked our away through the numerous trail loops. Trails are very short and easy (except Pass Mountain), but can be entertaining if ridden aggressive and they have pretty cool desert scenery. Watch out for cactus on trail. Entered through enterence off of Ellsworth and it cost $6.
