Draper Rim Trail - Ann's Trail
The Draper Rim Trail is an east-west singletrack route, built in 2011, running just below the crest of Traverse Mountain. You must reach the trail via other trails, so the total ride length will depend on your selection of trailhead. The most logical ride is a loop consisting of the Draper Rim, Bonneville Shoreline Trail (BST), and Clarks Trail. Then minimum distance for this loop is 10.2 miles, with 1200 feet of total climbing.

Getting there, Coyote Hollow trailhead:
Take the
Bluffdale exit from I-15 and turn east towards the mountains. Climb the
hill as above, but turn right at the light on Traverse Mountain Road.
After one mile, turn into Mike Weir Drive on your left. Pass the Mike
Weir
trailhead 1/2 mile later and continue another half mile until the road
veers left downhill. Take the next right turn, turn right again, then
left. You should now be on Gray Fox Drive. Take the next right into Coyote
Hollow Court. The parking is on the right at the end of the pavement. |
