Paradise Canyon TR 7/9/08

3.8 miles with a max speed of 16mph time: 1:15

Me and a friend did this trail today. it's been a while since i've done a trail and this one kicked my ass... literally. O and if you find my balls out there will you pick them up and mail them to me. :roflol:


it was realy rocky. especially on the way up Turtle Wall we had to walk a few spots.
it was a very fast ride. going down Paradise Rim was so fast and rocky... i'm still woundering how i didn't go flying over the handle bars. but i did take a few good hits


So now i give you the photos.
i didn't get any photos of the crazy rocky crap we went down.

That is one of my favorite trails to ride in St. George. I usually ride the Green Valley trail and then do that loop. I rode that same trail last year, but continued in a NW direction and then started dropping ledges and finally arrived in Ivins. Definitley not recommended to do that on a mountainbike. The toughest trail that I have done down your way is the Red mountain overlook. You start near Veyo and end up on the top of Red mountain which overlooks Ivins.
