Other Names | Coconino National Forest, Red Rock Ranger District, Cornville Single Track, Grandpa Wash, Dry Beaver Creek, Hog Canyon, Beaverhead Flat, Jones Tank, Middle Verde Loop, White Hills Loop |
Last Known Status | Open |
This part of the Coconino National Forest offers two separate single track loops that are well marked and a new parking area. The trail system is fairly new and opened to the public in December 2018.
The terrain is mostly hard packed dirt with some loose chunk rock but has a good mix of light to moderate elevation changes. Vegetation is sparse and mainly consists of various sage and scrub brush with mesquite trees.
The trails are open to dirt bikes, mountain bikes, hikers and horseback riding, and is regularly maintained by the Coconino Trail Riders, so be sure to say thanks to the club for all their hard work.
