Description

Marcus Landslide is 1.5 miles of beautiful downhill singletrack that you can use to drop in from the Tom's Thumb Trailhead to the Pemberton Loop. It follows the northeast side of the McDowells and has great views of interesting rock formations all along it, as well as some wonderful views across the Verde River valley at things like Four Peaks and Weaver's Needle.
