Starting Location: Hoge Road TH. Directions: North on N Virginia St (old US 395 N) past N McCarran Blvd. Turn left onto Hoge Rd. In about 0.8 miles, you will see parking on the right.

Description: We will hike the Stagecoach and Total Recall bike trails, a 4 mile loop, with 600 ft elevation gain. There will be mountain bikes on the trail. There are some short steep sections, no more than 30 feet in length each. Hoge road is paved, except for the last quarter mile which is bumpy, but passable if you drive SLOWLY on it.

Trails are for mountain bikes so they are a fairly gradual grade. We will hike uphill, until the top when we will hike downhill.

Distance(s): 4.0     Route Type: Loop     Elevation Gain: 600 (ft)     Difficulty: 4 (1=Easy thru 10=Very Difficult)

Event Specific Information: There are some wildflowers, but nothing like last year.

Hoge Road is still as bumpy as ever, so drive SLOWLY on the last 1/4 mile.

There are no restrooms at the trail head.

There is no shade on the trail, so bring water, and it is the season for sunscreen. Poles may be nice.

What to Bring: Drinking water and snacks. Hat and sunscreen are recommended. Trekking poles may be useful.
