Last Known Status | Open |
This part of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest offers over 20 miles of pure single track trails. The trails can be accessed by the North Ogden Divide Trailhead which offers direct access to the southern trail. The northern section is located across the street from the staging area but is seasonally closed to motorcycles until July 15.
Both northern and southern parts have narrow and sharp switchbacks with some loose chunk rock and overgrown tree roots covering the trail. The trail eventually levels out at the top and offers beautiful panoramic mountain and city views.
