	Hurricane Rim Trail
Location:	Utah
Nearest Town:	Hurricane
Directions to Trailhead:	The best way to this trail is by riding the J.E.M. from the top. After you cross the dirt road 1/2 way down the J.E.M. you will come to a semi-dry to dry cow watering pond. Approx. 1/2 a mile past the pond start looking for a dirt road. It should be the second one after the pond. Look to your left and you can see a tall sign in the distance. ride to the sign and follow the route. If you park on the road to Lake Powell by the cellular antennas 1/2 way up the hill out of Hurricane you can ride from here. I would suggest parking at the trail head for the J.E.M. and riding the trail to the antennas. You can ride dirt roads or the highway back to the car. Find Jarod at Bicycles Unlimited for more info. 435-673-4492, HE DA MAN.

Recommended Route: start in the main parking lot, about 1 mile out of Hurricane. Ride back down the road, less than 1/4 mile and turn right, onto Gould's trail. Follow this uphill, to the start of the Jem trail. Ride Jem to the East intersection with the Hurricane trail. Turn left onto Hurricane and back to the Parking lot. As described, this is a 21.3 mile loop. Other recommended trails in the same area: Little creek mesa, Gooseberry, Slickrock Swamp
Review: Gould-Jem-Hurricane! What a nice loop! It goes pretty fast, so if you are looking for a full day, add something else. We rode Slickrock swamp afterwards which made for a perfect 'big-dog' day. Hurricane is cool. It has it's own flavor that is quite unique. Reminded me of riding across the Scottish Moors and hinderlands. The loop may lack the epicness of Gooseberry or the Grandeur of the 'Swamp', but it is great singletrack, interesting, fast and fun, with the occasional problem thrown in to keep you honest.
