This is one of the few views from the deservedly popular Mountain bike loop including the Dry Fork trail and the penultimate section of the 459 mile Colorado Trail. It's a nine mile loop climbing 1200 feet, almost easily climbed in one direction. This trail is only about that far from town, to the west.
The view is of one of the La Plata's, a smaller 13k range marking the transition from the Rockies to the Utah Canyon Country to the West.
