Crapshoot Powerline Loop 3.0

A scenic Jeep trail loop in the south part of Table Mesa Recreation Area.

This is a combination of two trails - the east side is Powerline Trail 2.5 and the west side is Crapshoot 3.0.  Powerline Trail is a weak 2.5 while Crapshoot is a solid 3.0, esecially if done from south to north.

The namesake powerline

This loop is easy enough to be done in either direction, but will be described in a clockwise direction.

The east leg has only a couple somewhat challenging spots, but has great scenery for the entire length.

Powerline is always visible on east leg of the trail

Nice views even with the powerline

The notable item on the western leg is Crapshoot Hill.  Easy enough in a downhill direction (south) but a bit of a challenge going up.  I would rate the trail as 2.5 if driven counterclockwise.

There are nice views, but they are not quite as sweeping as on the east leg.
