Forest Service Road 018

Gravel route from FR 018 to FR 018, Vernal, Uintah County, Utah

"Nice loop through the forest. Lots of opportunities for side explorations. This is the extra loop that make up the Dirty Dino 100 miler, but from a different starting point."

Horseshoe Bend Lariat

Gravel route from Horseshoe Bend Rd to Horseshoe Bnd Ext, Vernal, Uintah County, Utah

"Best to ride the loop portion clockwise because the climb is on a well packed road, whereas if ridden in the opposite direction, the climb would be a very steep section with loose gravel."

5 mi   gravel

Brush Creek Road

Gravel route on County Rd 1320, Vernal, Uintah County, Utah

"Well-graded gravel road. Some punchy climbs. Connects Diamond Mountain Road to Donkey Flat Road (both of which are paved, and the latter of which runs along the north side of Red Fleet State Park)"

3 mi   gravel

Diamond Mountain Dirt Alternate

Gravel route on Diamond Mountain Rd, Vernal, Uintah County, Utah

"Mostly gravel, and mostly smooth. Sees little traffic and goes through a maze of other roads/trails, but connects to Diamond Mountain Road on both the south/west and north/east ends."

Red Cloud Loop - Brownie Canyon to Dry Fork Overlook

Gravel route on FR 018, Vernal, Uintah County, Utah

"Great road, with some vehicle traffic. Nice little climb up to the overlook. Mapped here from the trailhead at the mouth of Brownie Canyon. You can also park at any of the Flume Trail trailheads down the canyon to make it longer, still on gravel. And/or you can keep going on Red Cloud loop past the overlook as long as you want. Check out the rock art a mile or two in on the left (look but don't touch!)."
