Last week me and my son, Wgc and 2 other buddies from Missouri went out and rode the Paiute Trail near Marysvale Utah. The day before we arrived the high country received a good blanket of snow, which made the conditions a little colder and wetter than we expected. We rode paved roads, gravel roads, rocky trails, snow, mud (Wgc especially loved the mud) and nice tight 50 inch trails. We discovered the Paiute trails aren't that difficult but are fun to ride due to the fact you can make a loop every day. In 5 days we rode roughly 520 miles. The Grizzlies ran flawlessly unless we ran out of fuel! LOL! I can't say the same thing for my buddies Can Am Outlander 800. On day 2 his Outlander developed (melted) a hole in the gas tank due to the heat coming from his exhaust. After trying to fix it with no success, my other 2 buddies cut their ride short and headed back to Missouri. So the remaining 3 days me, my son and Wgc rode having a great time. This was definitely a bucket list ride, but it you're searching for difficult trails to ride, for the most part this isn't your place to go. If you want a place visit that gives you the ability to ride daily loops and see a wide variety of terrain I would highly recommend it. We saw a lot of wildlife, cattle and the Aspens were absolutely beautiful.

Here are just a few pictures we took.

Hey...Ransom..Thanks for the great pictures and the report on the Paiute area. I've had it on the bucket list for a couple years.

That's awesome Ransom. That is now on my bucket list. Is your buddy looking for a Grizzly now?

Looks great! I would like to get out there at some point and ride that too when I can find the time. That valley, Marysvale area, is pretty awesome as I went through there last summer after visiting Bryce and Zion.

Looks like a good family ride destination.

Fabulous! Awesome photo's, great description. I am looking forward to getting out west. I love it here, but the forest is so dense that you have to be able to get way up for any kind of open views, except up on the blueberry barrens. Most trails are not on mountain tops around here.

Thanks! Nah, he's not looking for a Grizzly. He likes the power to much of the big bore atvs. If anything I could see him jump to a 1000.

Brad,

The area was real nice. In fact my son said it was his favorite trip we've taken. My only complaint is their was a lot road riding to get to the fun trails. We only explored the Paiute trails and I can tell you their were a ton of BLM trails and forest service trails not part of the Paiute trail system we didn't explore. Their is a ton of riding out there. I would advise anyone going out there to have a gps and good map. Even with both of those it could be confusing finding your way at times.
