Description

Mayer Gulch is the heart of the Eagle Ranch Loop system. The trail starts at E Haystacker Dr and travels south to intersection with BLM road that runs between Hardscrabble Rd and Bailey Trail. The trail connects with Riddle Trail on the east and Turniphead and Bailey trails to the west.

The northern half of Mayer Gulch is a hoot, traveling through tight sagebrush.

This is best ridden as a descent.
