Naturita Ridge
Desert riding going up to a ridge between two valleys in Colorado. This is actually a route of several doubletrack trails and roads, even though it shows as a single trail on Trailforks, that are also open to atvs and dirt bikes. There wasn't any real hard technical sections, but a fun scenic exercise loop with some rockiness.
