All is right in the world again when an Outdoor Gold Video comes along. I had no idea this trail was up on the Mesa. Looks pretty fun either way. Nice video as usual !

As Harry Stamper said in the movie Armageddon, "Damn glad to see you boy!" Great stuff RC!

What a fun ride! Thanks!

Seems like type 2, maybe 2+ fun. Guess I’ll have to wait for Lands End Road to open in May.

Great trail...hell on the bike. I will be in Grand Junction for the first time next week. Haven’t had to leave Durango to find trails but I want to ride the ribbon trail while I am in Grand Junction. I also want to do Monarch Crest this summer. Thanks for the videos and I like the feedback you give on the trail.

Good thing you didn't try jumping that snag...think I saw a gremlin under it. Thanks for the vid shredder and Happy Trails 🤘🚲

WILD and WOOLY. Nice!

Good one RC! Are you sure that’s a trail? Lol. Thumbs up for adventure !!

Really want to ride that trail we’re like a hour away great vid

Who is this RC fella? He looks a little familiar. I think he used to host push-up contests on YT or something.. Haha, good to have you back! That was one raw looking trail. Not much opportunity for speed, but I bet it's a great day out 🤘

Ah good ol' Kannah Creek, where flow comes to die. Classic Grand Mesa jank-fest! Gotta love a trail that makes you work for every last bit of down.

Thanks for another trail report! I rode this way back about 20 yrs ago as a novice on a hard tail with 26” wheels and very little front suspension. I don’t remember much other than walking A LOT. I was so glad to see the end!

I was visiting GJ, Fruita and Montrose last September 2019 and I only hiked this trail. I parked at the trailhead and hiked up a ways to a fork and took a right. My intent was to get up to the point where you started it. The signage was not good because the right I took brought me through super narrow, trench like trail terrain where I was walking through super high and dense foliage. I eventually cleared onto a hunting camp then decided I should check my phone and see where I was. I was way off so then I back tracked to the fork and took the left tine, went up a ways, crossed streams and it seemed to take forever so I turned around and headed back to my car. To be honest, I hated this trail. It was a huge let down compared to the Ribbon, which I hiked twice, Horse Thief Bench, Mary's, Mack's Ridge, some stuff at 18 Road and Buzzard Gulch in Montrose. I have to say that the Ribbon was the most spectacular trail I've ever hiked in my life and I have hiked/trekked all over the world.

Looks like a great area. Why not get a local group to do proper maintenance on the trail? Clear the corridor. Create nicks, proper bench, and proper slope in rough sections. Clean or even turnpike the rock gardens enough to make them passable.

Cool. You’re back.

Awesome video! Now when the deuce you coming to Cali to ride?

Great ride. I will be there in September to give it a shot along with Palisades and Ribbon Trail. Any other epic DH shuttles in the general area that I should do as well? PS: Has anyone ever told you that your voice is so much like Steve Carel? lol

Like MTB in the 90's!

Great content!

The difference in trails by region in this country is amazing. If you come to my local trails, the whole network looks like one of your “rock gardens” on an XC style trail. I was told when I first started “if you can ride here you can ride anywhere”, and the more I ride and watch other trails I believe it.

What. Is. This? An Outdoor Gold video?! Wait, what year is it?

In my younger days, I used to do bushwhacking rides like that. Amazed you found a way to thread that together. That trail does have potential!

Whew that is a pretty raw trail! Sick 🤘🤘

I finally after 6 years without my drivers license just got it back right after Xmas, and I cannot wait to come out and experience some of the trails you showcase. this one being high on that list. Just straight up awesome single track.

Man that looked like a real workout! It's a tough one when your spokes catch it too!

You’re alive!!!!!

Thanks for sharing! Am-bare-a$$ed to say I never even knew this trail was there, looks like a fun ride

we need 29ers for this!... so JANKY!

I'd ride that, but not alone. How long did it take ?

Too long is right!! FB Videos dont do it justice! Glad to have you back

Just peaceful madness hahah, cool ride RC!

Sweet man good to see ya again

I thought Pinkbike said retired?

NICE RIDE! Right on RC's Gold !!!👍👍😎

Rugged Natural Trail. I can see why you did NOT want to climb that trail. Much more fun on the downhill. How many creeks did you have to cross?

I was super stoked to see a new video from you, but that trail was not an enjoyable watch.

Should rename that trail: Rock City or Boulder Highway.

RC’s riding partner: Hey, do you know of any trail that hasn’t had maintenance in 5 or more years? RC: Say no more

"very interactive" lol. not much flow on that one.

Yay! Holy crap that is a sketch-fest
