Part of the Road Apple Trails System.
Start by parking at the well pad by the BLM office. Cross the road to the trailhead and ride the loop counter-clockwise. It’s a fast-paced singletrack with no major climbs or descents, just gentle grades. The ride south back to the lot is fast and mostly downhill. This can also be done at the beginning of a loop around Kinsey or Seven Sisters, just take Hood Mesa Road from the north point of the Anasazi loop out to the trailhead of Kinsey. –MtbProject Description
Road Apple Trail is rolling singletrack, which starts on top of Kinsey Ridge. To the southeast, you can see the Navajo Reservoir and beyond, while to the north, you have an amazing view of the La Plata Peaks. This trail is so good, Ned Overend says it is his favorite trail!
