Bisti Badlands Bisti Trail

Riding here is what I’d imagine it would be like on the moon. Lots of gray landscape with what almost resembles dunes.

Horse camping for Bisti Badlands Bisti Trail

This is what I would consider pretty easy riding. Lots of flat ground with some small rolling ups and downs. This route took us near the "Hoodoos" and over to the “Elegant Hoodoo.” These aren’t like the ones in Bryce, but still fun. You’ll continue on to the “Alien Woman,” then to the “Valley of Bones.” From there, you’ll pass the “Bisti Rock Garden” and head on to the “Petrified Wood.” The last area we passed was the “Cracked Eggs”—my favorite. You will most likely encounter some windy conditions in the open areas. All of the mentioned spots can be seen on the map in Gaia. We rode this clockwise.
