Dog Bone

Buckeye, AZ

Rating: aMTB 1-2


Description

If you are driving through and need to stop for some exercise, the trailhead is right off the highway. Everything is true singletrack, but the impact is plenty wide with only three exceptions on the entire route we did. All the trails are very turny so there was a lot of cranking with one arm and steering with the other. Beautiful views though!


Staging

Dirt parking with no facilities, immediately off the highway


Trails

Bird (aMTB2) - One section of trail is exposed and may require a spotter

Boulders (aMTB2) - Boulder field requiring a little problem solving and possibly a spotter

Connector (aMTB1) - Nothing to report here

Coyote (aMTB1) - A couple small fun berms

Highways and Byways (aMTB1) - Might need to slow down for the lips on some of the wash crossing

Infinity (aMTB1) - Don’t get stuck in a loop! Fun swoopy turns

Kyle’s Greenhorn (aMTB1) - Turny singletrack loop

Laree’s (aMTB1) - Lollipop singletrack climb. The start of the climb up to Red Mountain, Boulders and Well.

Madd Bird (aMTB2) - One narrow spot with an uphill rock possibly requiring a spotter

Magic Mile (aMTB1) - Flat and turny singletrack

Red Mountain (aMTB2) - aMTB1 if you bypass the lollipop loop which has exposed bench cut. Turn right towards Boulders to avoid drama.

Shortcut (aMTB1) - How Infinity is accessed

Well (aMTB1) - One wash crossing has a steep lip
