Summary:
This a great trail and I like it. It is fun, I don't live in Logan but I ridden it a few times and it is great. Very green. I got a message for Hayduke about 3 summeries down, SCREW YOU! You know, you really got a sh*tty attitude. If you keep saying "mountain bike sucks" get out of here. Stop writing in the reviews and go to the Cake Recipe reviews or something and screw them. I've ridden bikes for years because I love the sport and being out in with a lot of fun & excitement and the beauty of mountain biking. Why don't you go do something you like to do and stop screwing other people on what they like to do.

Ride on the road just to piss on this guy. Oh, wear lycra and ride a full-suspension bike.

Summary:
This is my favorite trail. The first mile is a steady climb through fairly rough terrain. In the spring there's a small river that's fun to ride through. If you're in pretty good shape you can go up and back in under three hours easily. The tree is great. The downhill is awesome. I always try to be the last one on the trail. Otherwise you'll run into a lot of people coming back.

Recommended Route:
There's only one way until you reach the top, then I prefer to take the sunny side around.

Summary:
I hiked this trail several times in the last fifteen years before I biked it for the first time last weekend. One thing is for sure, it is showing signs of overuse. The first time I hiked it, I couldn't imagine riding it on a bike. Now it is two and three feet wide in many places and presents little in the way of technical challanges. A few loose sections to climb on the way up and one rocky streambed crossing are all there is. The last good climb is long but not particularly demanding either. In spite of these issues, it is worth a look in late May thru the middle of July. Late in July and August, the scene is not as green and the heat on the unshaded sections of the trail can get positively oppressive. The view across the hollow to the ridgeline featuring Beirdneau Peak, Mt. Jardine, and Mt. Elmer is fabulous. One year we saw four Turkey Vultures perched on a cliff near the top. Later in the afternoon, they soared over us while we were starting our hike back out. As far as the actual Jardine Juniper goes, don't expect too much. It's a really, really, really old tree and it look just like a really, really, really old tree. It's probably been struck by lighting as many times as any other tree out there. There is, however, just enough green on top to prove it is still alive after over 3000 years. Just one thing, if you're one of the numerous local $400 talents sporting a $2000 bike who wants to ride this trail every other weekend as a regimental, please stick to Green Canyon, Providence Canyon, Left Hand Fork, and all the other jeep trails for your workouts! Let's save the Juniper for those who really appreciate being able to hike or ride what used to be the coolest little singletrack just once a year.

Recommended Route:
do the loop counter-clockwise, it gets you more shade in the head of the day
