'Super rocky ride up to Sunflower mine. Rocky trail continues back to the main access road. Gold Ridge trail #47 links main access road (#201) back to the Beeline Highway. Trail 47 is grown over, washed out, and nearly impassible in places. Packing a shovel and saw is a good idea |

Great long loop with a 50 / 50 mix of blacktop and dirt. 90% easy, FAST, dirt roads with a touch of easy/moderate jeep road between Bloody Basin and Dugas. This route follows the Great Western Trail from Carefree, AZ to the I-17. Then runs the scenic Fossil Creek Road down to the decommissioned Childs Power Plant along the Verde River. |

Sunflower mine is a real treat. In operation mining mecury into the 1980's, there is a lot of equipment still in reasonable condition. High clearance 4x4 vehicles and big bikes with experienced off road riders will find the access road to the mine challenging. Also, the easy 201 road up to the Mazatzal Wilderness is spectacular!!! |
 |

Moore Gulch is a great ride for experienced big bike riders or less experienced riders on small bikes. Nothing too tough and great scenery. |
 |

 |
The Island is a challenging ride but not overly difficult. Great views and loads of fun. There are a few hills that are a interesting climb, but they are short so it's easy to regroup. |
 |
2009-01-10
|
 |
If you stay off NF17, the ride is easy to moderate. NF17 is extreme, rocks, mud, hills. Make sure that your equipment is in order before attempting, or have a very good friend who flys a helicopter. |
 |

Deep sand, hugh rocks, steep climbs, broken bikes, getting lost, and single track are just part of the fun we had on this ride. |

SAND! Pima Dynamite Road is fast, hard packed sand with lots of small whoops. Camp Creek and the Bartlett Lake area is deep soft sand. It's managable if you can keep your speeds up. Most of the area is closed to motorized vehicles at this time. |

The trails between New River and Black Canyon City are EXTREME and not for the faint of heart adventure rider. This pass through Table Mesa Road found conditions excellent. The road is easy with a couple moderately challenging climbs. |
 |

 |
Gillette is very easy to get to as long as the Agua Fria River isn't running. The road from Tip Top Mine to the Milk Ranch (end) was recently graded, however, there are a number of extreme climbs. Boulder Creek has lots of rocks and deep sand. |

The Montana Mountain loop is an easy ride with spectacular views. There are a few steep climbs that should be no problem for a rider with some off road experience, even with street tires. This loop is best ridden clockwise. Be sure to exit around the gate after the quary, otherwise take the 1 mile hill to the left which is rated EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. Pinal Peak is another easy loop of almost all graded roads. |
 |
2008-05-10

 |
Seven Springs Road from Carefree is easy fast graded dirt road. Same with the drive up to Humbolt Lookout, which provides spectacular 360 degrees views of Horseshoe Lake and the surrounding area. Table Mesa Road can be easy to moderate depending on recent weather events. |
 |
2008-04-20
|
 |
Easy ride up to Cordes Junction and across Bloody Basin Road to Sheep Bridge. The trail from Sheep Bridge to Horseshoe Dam is mostly easy except for crossing Deadman Wash, which can be very difficult. Crossing Horseshoe Dam on the walkway can be tricky. Crossing the dam while water is being released is SPECTACULAR! |
 |
2008-04-12
|
 |
Great easy ride. Fast graded dirt roads. Scenery is better traveling from west to east. Crossing the Agua Fria River near Cordes Junction could be a problem after heavy rains. Otherwise the crossing is usually a trickle. |
 |
2008-01-05
|
 |
Turkey Creek trail from Bumble Bee to Cleator is extremely difficult. Bloody Basin from Cordes Junction to Sheep Bridge is easy graded dirt road. Sheep Bridge to Horseshoe Dam has some difficult sections. |
 |
2007-12-24

 |
Bulldog Canyon has a little of everything. Fast hard pack, deep sandy washes, and nasty rocky hills. Call the Tonto National Forest ranger station in Mesa to secure a free permit and combination lock access code to the recreation area before heading out. It's a small area where you can easily ride all the trails in less than half a day. |
