The Miller Gulch trailhead can be found off of road 549, which is accessible from
County Road 68. The other end of the trail intersects Sandy Wash, and the trail
can also be accessed near its midpoint from Gashouse or Baldy.
I concur with everyone else's reviews. I especially like Tiki's and Stumpy's perspectives. When we have used Miller to connect the other trails, we have sometimes just regrouped and chatted riding side by side (Tiki's idea). Other times we have blazed through it chasing each other and had a blast doing so (Stumpy's idea). I guess there is nothing really to dislike here. It is quite beautiful with the tall, old growth ponderosa pine.
| ThankDoubletrack-ish trail that may help complete a few specific loops--not much to speak of itself.
| ThankConnector trail. Wide, easy and relaxing. Although could be fun if riding fast
| ThankIt's a good place to recover. None of those crazy uphills, good shaded area. The trail is also wider which means you can ride side by side, chat and take water breaks before you hit the fun stuff. Miller Gulch isn't a trail you go to BC to explore, it is just something you have to go through to get to the better trails.
| ThankNothing too special, but it's a great and easy way to get from the climbing trails to the descending trails.* Review edited 8/26/2012
