Kokopelli:
The Kokopelli trail offers a world-class bike-packing experience. Spanning over 142 miles connecting the mountain biking epicenter of Fruita Colorado to the Mecca - Moab Utah via singletrack, jeep roads, and a few paved sections.
There are plenty of camping options along the trail ranging from established campsites to dispersed camping. This is a completely self-supported ride as there are no food resupply areas on the trail. Water sources along the route are minimal. It is advised to research which sources are viable prior to planning your trip. Caching water along the route is recommended. Rabbit Valley and Dewey Bridge are popular water cache locations.
The Kokopelli trail provides stunning scenery including views of the Colorado River, Yellow Jacket Canyon, View Point Arch, and the La Sal Mountain range. The route can be ridden from Spring until Fall. However, it is generally unbearably hot during the summer and can have snow in the higher elevations during the early spring and late Fall months. The trail tops out at over 8,500 feet in the La Sal Mountains, check snowpack levels in the area prior to your trip. Typical ride time is 3 days although many groups prefer a more leisurely pace and take between 4-5 days to complete the route.
