“Winds across arroyos and along ridge lines.”

— John Geronimo
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

This is the western leg of the Cerillos del Coyote race course. The northern portion that connects to the Quebradas Back Country Byway is doubletrack. The singletrack portion is 2.05 miles of the total. Loose in spots, it is best ridden south to north from Quebradas Hogback Trail.

If ridden north to south, the beginning of the singletrack section is slightly unobvious as it requires a scramble up the bank of the large arroyo near the end of the doubletrack.
