This area provides a mixture of lush evergreen forest and harsh desert landscape. The contrast is as beautiful as it is extreme. You can ride all day here in a large loop with a little bit of backtracking and see canyons, rock formations, rolling hills, dense forests, and get your feet wet in the river.

You can ride on any road that has a green dot marker on it. The area is open year-round, but wheeled vehicles will find it impassible due to snow in winter, usually between December and March. Snow lingers as late as June.
