Mountain Biking Caprock Canyons Trail System

Not as good as its sister up the road (Palo Duro) but a fun change. Trails are pretty beaten down by Horses and there are some pretty big drops.

    If you're looking for some great singletrack you will find little here. However the double track has a lot of intermediate type riding, and one of the best features is if you have a significant other, you can ride close together most of the time. While no Palo Duro, the canyon is quite scenic.
    Also wild Buffalo.
