Description

While a doubletrack jeep/ATV path, this is still a fun ride as it consists of mostly downhill riding accented by multiple dry and rocky creek crossings. This road can be accessed by turning off of North Star Mesa Road. Just look for the forest service sign labeled FR 4079R and turn off of the road and through the green forest service gate. At this point, stick to the main path and enjoy the fast, slick and baby head accented ride down to highway 35.
