Start at: Canelo Rd Sierra Vista, AZ 85613
1. Head east on Canelo Rd - 2.8 mi
2. Slight right at Butler Rd - 0.3 mi
3. Turn left at Shipp Ave - 0.1 mi
4. Turn right at Hines Rd - 0.5 mi
5. Continue onto Huachuca Caynon Rd - 1.5 mi
6. Turn right Destination will be on the right - 348 ft The Fort Huachuca Super D course has been designed as the ultimate All Mountain Time Trial. It Starts at 5500 elevation and drops down to 4900 ft within 20 minutes of fast sprinting. There is a 150 ft elevation climb on pavement in the middle of the course for the climbers as well as a 50 ft steep rock climb out of a "V" near the end of the course. The start will be on a wide open 4x4 fireroad with ditches to cross and an optional wall ride in a corner for the gravity lovers. Then you will cross Huachuca Canyon Road and enter the single track, snaking through Oak Trees and rocks that want to reach out and grab your precious sidewalls. The farther down it goes, wider the track becomes until you blast out onto the paved Reservoir Hill Road. Climb it fast and turn right to climb above the parking lot to the first 4x4 road on the left. There will be almost immediate diagonal ditch to cross and then go left onto the ridgeline firebreak. Bomb down this gradual decline with occasional opportunities to get air until you reach a super steep "V" on your right. Enter with caution and try to climb the other side quickly. As soon as you reach the top of the "V", hang a left and flow across the fields on double track following signs to the finish. It will all only take you about 20 minutes if you pedal hard! :) |
