Green Canyon Trail (Aug. 9th 2007)

Green Canyon Trail Location

Logan, Utah

Go as far East on 1900 North....This will take you right up Green Canyon. (e-mail me for better directions)

The Trail

What a great trail! My nephew and I bypassed the 3.7 miles of dirt road and went strait to the singletrack trailhead. We traveled a total of 4 miles (2 up 2 down). The trail itself had quite a bit of vegetation overgrowth throughout the trail making it difficult at times to see rocks and roots. Terrain was fairly easy until 1 and 1/2 miles up. Then it got fairly technical with an increase of rocks and roots.

One sidenote about this trail is that the majority of the trail is a rut. This just adds another aspect of the trail. The rider needs to take caution to always watch is pedal position to avoid hitting your pedal on the side of the trail.

Time

Overall this trail took us less than 1 hour to complete at a medium pace. From 1400 North in Logan allow about 15 minutes to get to the trailhead...and the reverse to get out.

GREAT TRAIL...GO RIDE IT!
