Recommended Users: Mountain Bikers, Hikers. Singletrack trail. 2.5 miles in length. Difficulty: Moderate/Easiest. More Cowbell Trail is a short loop that circles the rim of a small mesa. To reach the start of the trail, take Dead Ringer Trail for 0.36 miles. At the intersection, More Cowbell takes off on the right while Dead Ringer, on the left, drops down from the mesa top. Follow the trail around the mesa until it once again meets up with Dead Ringer. Stay to left on Dead Ringer and travel back to the Jem Trailhead.The views from the Mesa are striking. Gooseberry Mesa rises in the East and below lies the deep drainage that contains the Jem Trail. In the distance, the towers of Zion National Park sprout up along the skyline. As the trails swings around the mesa for the return, another deep drainage on the west appears. To east are large, slabs of sandstone, laid out like broken tile along the inner slopes of the mesa.“I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell.” —Bruce Dickinson (Christopher Walken)
