Description
After pedaling up Cedar Mountain, you'll enjoy a panoramic view of the Yampa Valley and southern Wyoming from a vantage point 1,000 feet above the valley floor. The horseshoe-shaped mountain is covered in juniper forest, and riders can frequently observe wildlife along the trail. It is a steep climb up to the rim from the parking/picnic area.
