Overview

South of the Crystal Geyser, Orange Trail Shelf Road is a short spur that looks more like a cattle trail through the prairie at the trailhead. The scenery quickly turns into a view of the valley to the south as you descend down the narrow trail. This spur is an alternate access point to the Orange Trail that runs between Salt Washington North and the Crystal Geyser Jeep Trail. This otherwise mundane trail offers a little bit of excitement as you traverse the narrow passage.
