Deep Gulch
This route uses a combination of improved dirt/graveled and two-track roads. Riders can start either on the lower or upper end and make a loop ride, an out-and-back ride on a two-track road, or arrange a shuttle back to the vehicle. If you are planning a loop or out-and-back ride, you'll have some climbing to enjoy. Vegetation includes sagebrush, serviceberry, aspen, and limber pine. Opportunities to view pronghorn, deer, elk and raptors exist. The loop ride is approximately 30 miles, with some side trips available. The riding time is about 2 to 5 hours.
