Description for Carbon Canyon
Carbon Canyon trail is a great workout ride. From the beginning your at an incline for about4 to 5 miles but at the peak you get a big reward! A great down hill from the peak with twist and turns but watch out take a turn too hard and your for sure to go down from some sandy areas.
Great intermediate ride, beginners you might want to build up some endurance before tackling this one!

Did this ride yesterday for the first time. It's actually the North ridge to telegraph loop. Those who love climbing will enjoy the steady elevation gain for 5+ miles. You will difinitely want to get your leges prepared for the climb. I tried it once in the summer and failed after 1 mile. Trail has not been maintained making the fire road look like a singletrack with all the overgrown grass and brush.
Overall I'd rate the trail 3.5 of 5. I liked the challenge but don't like riding on telegraph at all. Very boring ride down. I'll try coming back on the south ridge next time.
