Description

The best place to park is right inside the south entrance to Tuthill coming off I-17, although there is ample parking further inside the park.

From there, you can head north or south (clockwise is a bit more fun). This is a great after-work ride and isn't very technical aside from one or two hilly sections. The majority of the ride is smooth on flowing hardpack.
