Overview

In the heart of Utah lies the San Rafael Swell, an area full of trails winding through towering red sandstone cliffs, juniper trees, and sandy washes. Tucked into the far western side of the Swell lies a seldom-used area in the shadows of the Molen Reef. Bitter Seep Passage is a great way to head back from Broken Pond after running the Moore Cuttoff to Broken Pond trail. The bulk of Bitter Seep Passage stays in a wash as you climb back up to higher ground. Although there are no difficult obstacles, the wash has the ability to change with every passing storm. This is a cool little trail to run to get you heading back to the Moore Cutoff Road.
