Sulphur Canyon #281 and Cienega Horse Bypass #266 Loop Reviews

This little hike has some minor elevation gain in the beginning through the Cibola forest, then flattens out on the backside of the loop for some nice views of the surrounding towns. Went on a Tuesday and didn’t see any other hikers. Giving it 4/5 because the beginning and end is walking along the road instead of a trail. There were cars passing us and little shoulder room. Otherwise, this is a year round trail and great option in the fall to see the leaves change colors.
