Wire Mesa Trailhead
This is a close fun loop trail with a great view of Zion.
The locals call this "5 way" because there are 5 great trails to choose from when you park here. It's the center point of all the trails connected to the Jem. There's a kiosk with a map of them. It's also a great starting point for kids and beginners who don't want to go for more than an hour or so.
My favorite trail is Goose Bumps because you roll down one hill and up the next from the momentum. It's a lot of fun and you may find yourself laughing from the sheer pleasure of it!
