Getting there: Take the I-15 Lehi Main Street exit and turn west. Continue west on SR-73, crossing Redwood Road (11600 West). Continue westbound uphill. Just after climbing the hill, turn left at the stop light onto The Ranches Parkway. At Pony Express Parkway, turn right. The road will veer a bit south (left), then back west (right) as you get one mile from Ranches Parkway. After you pass a large hill on your left, just before Hidden Hollow Elementary, take the next left. Go uphill to the end of the pavement and it will become Hidden Canyon road. Hidden Canyon Trail: The paved trail eastbound directly along Pony Express will take you to the Hidden Canyon trail for the larger loop ride. Race Loop trailhead: If you're driving to the main Race Loop trailhead, take the dirt road. Keep generally left and heading southeast at all road forks, staying just below the slope of the hill on your left. When you reach the broad valley and see a bunch of competing road forks at mile 1.3 from Pony Express Parkway, you're there. |
