Moonlight Meadows
Moonlight Meadows is a classic La Sal Mountain ride southeast of Moab. With a starting altitude of 10,500 feet, and featuring rough narrow singletrack, the "Classic" 10.8 mile loop ride will be a challenge even for strong skilled riders. This ride makes a long climb on FR 071 before tackling Moonlight Meadows, Clark Lake, Clark Lake Loop Trail, and  Boren Mesa. Upper-intermediate riders can do a "Mini-loop" of 3.6 miles starting at Geyser Pass, or a figure-eight adding the Geyser Pass singletrack . Riding season is July through September.
