This is a small network of trails that you can link together in various ways. Most of it is pretty tame, including the steepest trail that goes off the mesa. A good ride for kids. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
Never modify trail features. Ride trails when they're dry enough that you won't leave ruts. Speak up when you see others on the trail and always yield to hikers, horses, and others coming uphill. Always ride on the established trail.
