The other day we rode a bunch of trails in the WIlkins Peak Trail System and today we were across the river riding a couple new ones. We started down by the river and rode the Greenbelt trail out to the singeltrack. The Green River Greenbelt in total is 12 miles of paved trail that …
We ducked out of Utah for a while and are just across the border in Green River, Wyoming. Our new primitive spot sits up above town at about 7200′ and is nice and quiet. Our last couple weeks were up in the Ashley National Forest among trees but there aren’t any up here. Green River …
Our plan was to ride the Sheep Canyon scenic loop but it was a little chilly so we decided to drive it and mountain bike later in the day. Sheep Canyon is a 10 mile mostly paved loop with some great scenery along the way. From camp we drove out 44 and stopped at a …
Without much information we crossed our fingers and set out on mountain bikes to ride the Highline Trail from our camping spot. The Highline Trail in its entirety is 101.6 miles and the section near us showed black diamond for atv’s, and mountain bikes so we figures what the heck? The trail starts in an …
Even though we are camped right on a trail network, we still spent a few days riding other trails around Vernal. The other day we rode the trails out at Red Fleet and I blogged about it here. This time we drove over to what seemed like an unlikely place for trails to be and …
Just up the highway from Vernal, Utah is a trail network called Red Fleet Trails. These trails are right outside Red Fleet State Park so you don’t have to pay to ride them. There are a few trailheads to access the network from but we started from the main one. About 22 miles of trails …
Vernal, Utah in NE Utah has quietly been attracting more mountain bikers in the last decade. Derek and I stopped here back in 2015 on our way back to Bend from Steamboat Springs, CO. I think we only spent one night and one day riding here back then. This time we are here for the …
We already posted about the mountain bike trails in Goblin Valley State Park, which unfortunately are the only real mountain bike trails nearby. There are a lot of off-road (OHV) routes around here that are popular with the jeep and side-by-side crowd. So I decided to get out and explore some of these roads to …
Our second day in Goblin Valley State Park we checked out the mountain bike trails. There are 5 loops, all pretty easy but scenic. Derek put together a ride involving all of them, even doubling up and rode 12 miles. This isn’t a destination for mountain biking, more like something to do if you are …
Camping right on the trail system makes riding so easy! We spent several days riding different loops in the Hurricane Cliffs trail system right from camp. I won’t bore you with details of all the trails we rode, just look at a couple pretty pictures. After returning from a ride one day we discovered that …
