Lion's Loop

Lion’s Loop is a technical gem in the Fruita, CO, area and has great views of Horsethief Canyon. The initial part of the trail climbs up from I-70 to the canyon rim and then drops down into the canyon itself. While the ride up is easy, the trip down into the canyon includes a few spots of rocky descents while riding along a shelf road. Make sure to pay attention to the obstacles first, and the scenery second though, bad wheel placement can mean serious consequences here.
