Red Mountain DH Trails
Red Mountain, just north of Vernal, has two DT trails that are usually ridden separately as advanced-technical shuttled downhills. You can, however, combine the trails to ride Red Mountain as a brutal loop. Another riding option is to substitute the Rojo Trail for a portion of Red Mountain West, either uphill or downhill. For the shuttled downhill, you'll leave a car at the bottom of either DH West or DH East, then park below the top of the mountain. Yes, below. You'll push your bike 500 vertical feet in 1/2 mile to reach the top. The downhill has 1700 feet of elevation change.

Getting there: While driving toward Vernal on US-40, crest the hill and pass the rest area just before town. As you encounter buildings, watch for 2500 West on your left. As of 2010, it's the 3rd street, but it depends on what you count as a street. Turn left on 2500 West.
Shuttle West or parking for Killer Loop: Keep going north for 8 miles. At N40 32.678 W109 35.275, there's a parking area on your right. The trail is the doubletrack heading north.
Shuttle to Top: Continue north on 2500 West to mile 13 from US-40. Spot dirt road on the right at N40 36.447 W109 33.865. Keep right at the fork and park at the end of the road. Start "riding" south on ST at N40 35.896 W109 33.293. The top of both trails is 0.4 miles and 500 vertical feet uphill.
Shuttle East: Go north a couple of miles on 2500 West as above, but turn right at 2500 North. At the T intersection a mile later, turn left, then veer right. When the road intersects SR 44 two miles from 2500 West, turn left and drive 3.3 miles north. Turn left into a dirt road with an adjacent small parking spot at N40 32.867 W109 31.554. Now take your Top vehicle back to 2500 West and continue north as described above.
