|  fruita = lodging + trails | Andropogon Jun 18, 2003 9:13 AM | | heading to Fuita this weekend... looking for suggestions on places to stay, and trails that i shouldn't miss... |
|  my 2 cents | Cabin Fever Jun 18, 2003 8:02 PM | | both times i've been there, i've camped at this state park called Highland State Park (i think that was the name...) anyway, it was a nice campground. as far as trails go, there are two sections of trails you need to hit: the Kokopelli Trail loops, and the Book Cliffs trails.
The Kokopelli Trail loops all pretty much center around a loop called Mary's loop, which is mainly all easy rolling doubletrack with great views. Off of Mary's Loop, there I recommend hitting Horsethief Bench and Moore Fun FOR SURE. Make sure you hit these two. also of noteworthy mention is Steve's Loop, and Troybuilt, both which can be accessed from Mary's Loop. So it all center's around Mary's Loop.
The Book Cliffs trails are also super sweet, and MAKE SURE you hit Joe's Ridge, and then extend that to Zipideedodah.. i hear Prime Cut is also sweet.
you can look up all these trails in the Trail Review section of this website. stop in at Over The Edge bike shop in town, and they'll tell you all you need to know. And don't let them fool you, Moore Fun IS A VERY TECHNICAL TRAIL. since they built it, they'll play it down. anyway, have tons of fun, and bring a camera! |
