I’ve heard of bull ranch creek. Old name. Also Cow Canyon.

Rider Planet has had this name for it for years. I think it really refers to the single track area between Dog Valley and Peavine.

I’m not sure it’s the same place, but I believe RAD got some NV OHV funds to build additional single track there:

Peavine Maze Single Track

The link above indicates that RAD’s project should be complete by now. Maybe we should check out the single track there? Or has someone already ridden it?

BTW, the Moon Rocks OHV improvement project is also underway and scheduled to finish by January 1st, 2026:

Moon Rocks OHV Improvements

I don’t know exactly what we will be seeing in the way of improvements, but it is good to see that NV OHV has been busy.

I’ve been on about half of the single track referenced. It’s a small area, but great riding and some spectacular views. There’s a really cool creek crossing, and some pretty challenging hill climbs. Plus it’s a short detour on my main route from Bordertown to Stampede.

As far as the name, people from cold springs seem to call it dog valley, the road I usually take is Mitchell Canyon.

Hey Luke, how would your rank the hill climbs there on a 1-10, with 1 being a rock garden and 10 being chocolate cake dirt?

[Luke Hebert]

Kurt, it definitely depends on the season, and the area. There are decomposed granite slabs and loose sand, there aren’t too many rocks out there. There are some dirt areas as well that can be muddy when wet and a couple of small roots and logs to contend with. Overall, I would say the hill climbs are anywhere from a 2-7 depending on the weather moisture.

Kurt, take your single-track bike and you will have a blast. In the summer, start early as the south face of Peavine gets hot. I have ridden it all a lot, and it is fun.
