Youtcy Pasture Trail

If you want to experience what a real working cattle ranch is like, the Youtcy Pasture Trail has what you are looking for. Various cattle tanks alongside the road are usually full or partially full of water. This brings scores of thirsty cattle into the area, and you will likely see many of them on your trip. There's also other ranching infrastructure, including cattle guards and corrals. But this isn't the real reason to run this trail. The white knuckle section, the Plunge, descends 600 feet in approximately 3/4 of a mile. The last portion that drops into the canyon is about 30° of pitch.
