MOUNTAIN BIKING: Zion Curtain

← UT DUCHESNE RIVER RANDLETT UT Single Tracks →

Description

Once on the singletrack under the Interstate, you will climb through pinyon and juniper cross a dirt road twice and the trail bends to the right along a fence line. You are on the Utah-Colorado border now. Again the road crosses the trail @ approx. 4.5 miles and stay to the left following the trail up to the rim, traversing along the rim to a challenging climb to the ridgeline above. From here things get a bit dicey as you descend the trail crossing slickrock to one more final white knuckler descent and then mellowing out and working it's way around the ridge. Shortly you will intersect Kokopelli's Trail. Go north or right on the road towards the I-70 staying left until crossing back under. Go right and follow the road approx. 3 miles back to car. Milage starts @ I-70 underpass. Almost if not all of this trail is in Utah.

Directions

From Fruita traveling west on the I-70 exit at the Rabbit Valley 2 exit. Go right and follow the dirt road north up and over the hill then west to parking area. Begin on this 2 track going west to the I-70 underpass approx. 3 miles to I-70 underpass. Proceed south under the Interstate and about a half mile or so take the first singletrack on your left.
