 | Getting there... Jazz Chromoly Trailhead: In Vernal on US-40 (the main drag), turn north on US-191. Drive to mile 10.7 and turn right at the paved road signed "Red Fleet Dinosaur Trackway." Drive uphill 0.6 miles. At the top of the hill, turn left onto a dirt road and immediately park in the wide area on the left. On your bike, go back to the paved road and turn left. 100 feet later, find the narrow Handsome Cabin Boy (HCB) singletrack on the right (south) side of the road, heading south. J-Boy is found 1.1 miles along HCB. Cattle grate parking: Drive to the cattle grate at mile 1.5 and park in the small spot on the right side of the road. Find Handsome Cabin Boy southbound along the fence and follow it until it crosses the road again. J-Boy forks left immediately as the trail leaves the road. Dinosaur Tracks trailhead: Drive to the Dinosaur Tracks parking area at mile 2.4 from US 191. J-Boy is across the road from the uphill end of the parking strip, and also 100 feet down the dinosaur tracks hiking trail. |
