Coalpits & Scoggins Wash

The Coalpits/Scoggins Wash Trail has been completely blocked for stock use until recently, when our Back Country Horsemen chapter obtained a grant to work together with Zion National Park to open this trail once again and create a loop up Scoggins Wash to the Chinle Trail and then loop back down on the Scoggins Wash Stock Trail.
Currently the new trail is only “roughed in” and not well established or marked. This trail in its current condition would be rated difficult/advanced for both rider and animal due to some steep grades on unstable footing and one big leap where your animal would need to jump up 3 ft unto a rock ledge. Total loop is 9.5 miles.
