Terrain & soilMagnificent 7 sits in the Moab, UT area, on sandy soil that drains fast over terrain that drains at an even, moderate pace. With little tree cover, sun and wind get to the dirt fast. Whether it’s worth riding comes down to how that ground sheds and holds water after rain. That’s exactly what Loam tracks, hour by hour. At 5,650 ft, Magnificent 7 rides NNE-facing ground that keeps the dirt shaded for much of the day, so moisture lingers after rain and snow is slow to clear; the gentle grade, around 3.4° on average, drains slowly enough that low spots stay soft after a storm. Named trails in this network include 7-Up Trail, Mustang Trail and Whirlwind Trail.
