Description

Ride west out of the parking lot. Follow an old 2 track through a small pasture area. Stay right at 0.4 miles and back left at 0.45 miles (Prospect Trailhead).

Continue on the 2 track until 0.85 miles where the trail leaves the 2 track and goes west on a singletrack. At 1 mile, you'll have to climb a fence and continue north. At 1.45 miles, you'll come to an intersection with the Ute Trail. At 1.8 miles, you'll run into the Sidewinder Road.
