“A sandy traverse linking the Post Cutoff Trail to the Lower Muley Twist Canyon Trail.”

Runner Notes

Sandy going makes for some tread resistance, but this route is still runnable.

Description

This user-made trail starts across from the corral at the parking area at the Post Trailhead and extends to the Lower Muley Twist Canyon Trail. The predominantly sandy route includes a mix of singletrack, road-trace, and a number of wash crossings as it follows the contours of the Halls Drainage. Taken from north to south, you'll enjoy a very subtle descent, which might not be so subtle on the return trip.
