Copper Canyon Loop is a 3.9 mile trail. The first mile is a climb up some switch backs then it gets fun. A couple of the corners are a little tight so be ready to brake. There is a creek crossing that is usually dry. This is an otherwise awesome trail that is fun for riders of any level.

 After some refreshing moisture the trail forces your tires to tick to it like glue. Just past the water feature there is a bench with a small fire...
