Trail guide · East of Hurricane, Washington County

Little Creek Mesa

Remote slickrock-and-pinyon mesa south of Gooseberry; expert terrain.

Verify before you ride. E-bike rules differ by land manager and even by trail, and they change. Everything here was read from public pages on Oct 31, 2026 (America/Denver). We are not a land manager, and nothing on this site is legal advice. Check the agency and trailhead signs; when a source is missing we say "unverified."
