						Follow U.S. Highway 180 to Santa Clara and turn north onto the Fort Bayard Medical Center access road. Pass the hospital complex by taking the right fork till you get to the sign with Forest Road 536. This will take you to the Fort Bayard Administrative Site Trailhead and parking is 1/10 mile west of the junction of forest Roads 536 and 929.

Although most of this trail network is solid green, there's some swoopy fun segments to be had, and there's a couple solid blue spots on the Dragonfly Trail. Dragonfly is definitely the best of the network, and it's only a few miles. There's enough more to get in plenty of mileage, but it's mostly less entertaining. A nice network close to town.
| ThankSome of this trail system contained some really nice singletrack. Other parts were really sandy. The petroglyph on the Dragonfly Trail was pretty neat. Mostly green (easy) trails with a very few slightly blue sections thrown in.
