We will visit two open spaces on this ride. First, we'll visit Coyote Ridge and then transport to the nearby Coyote Valley. Both rides are short, but Coyote Ridge is very steep. We can optionally do multiple loops at Coyote Valley for those interested in a longer ride. Coyote Ridge requests all riders have a no-charge Butterfly Pass indicating they are aware of the sensitive area requirements. Be fully self-supporting. There is no water at either location. Due to trail conditions, gravel bikes are not advised.
