Bi-directional segment of Bearclaw Poppy Trail that provides connectivity for the lower, one-way BCP loop and the Stucki Springs Trail. It also allows for easy laps on Clavicle Hill or to continue north onto the Acid Drops segment. Beginners approach this moderate descent with caution. A series of wooden fences along the trail were installed to define the intended path of travel and protect Dwarf Bearclaw Poppy habitat.
The Bearclaw Poppy Trail resides in the BLM’s Red Bluff Area of Critical Environmental Concern, one of the most fragile ecosystems in the southwestern United States. It’s managed largely for the protection of the Dwarf Bearclaw Poppy. The only place on earth this plant grows is in gypsiferous clay soils in Washington County, Utah. Do your part to protect its habitat by obeying posted signage and traveling only on established trails.
Access to Bearclaw Poppy is a privilege, not a right. There’s potential for permanent closure of this trail due to the proliferation of new user-created routes, off-trail travel, and poor etiquette by the cycling community in general. Do your part to set a good example and help spread the word to riders that don’t understand the implications of poor trail etiquette.
