About Cohab Canyon Trail
The trail starts in historic Fruita and climbs quickly up sandstone cliffs into a secluded canyon that follows a wash. Once on the mesa top, it splits to two overlooks, where the view reaches across Fruita's orchards and the historic barn below. The Frying Pan Trail links here to Cassidy Arch, so the two can be combined into one longer outing.
