TRAIL SUMMARY
Owen’s Loop makes for a fun technical ride that highlights the St George’s fantastic slick rock. Most of the trail is slow-going and technical, but awesome views and challenging terrain make for a fun ride. Your bike will probably have to be carried at one spot, but everything else is ride able all the way to the lollipop loop at the end. Keep your eye out for awesome rock features including some arches!
