Description

Southern Express is replacing a well-worn section of older trail. It adds to the inventory of easier trails at the southern portion of the 18 Road trail system. Gentle grades make this a good trail for new riders and families. The southern terminus of this trail connects to a BLM road that will take you back to the main 18 Road and the campground.
