Overview

Clay Deposit Road is located within the Dixie National Forest near Enterprise Reservoir. The trail cuts across rolling hills and through a scenic canyon that connects with two other popular trails in the area. You connect this trail with Slaughter Creek twice throughout the trail. This allows you to run a long portion of Slaughter Creek, through The Pinnacles and back out on Veyo Shoal Creek Road, making for an incredible all-day loop. The trail is both scenic and mildly challenging for stock 4x4's. There are narrow shelf roads with sweeping switchbacks. You'll take in the passing mountains that are decorated with white sandstone formations. Always keep an eye to the sky, golden eagles, bald eagles, owls and hawks can be spotted hunting this remote wilderness.
