Hiking and mountain biking are popular activities on the 1.3-mile Sawmill Trail and the 6.2-mile Bristlecone Trail. Both begin just a short drive from Foxtail.  When there is at least 12 inches of snow on the ground, Foxtail becomes a winter playground for sledding and tubing.<h2>Facilities</h2>

The two largest have pavilions and fireplaces. Flush toilets and drinking water are provided.  During the winter, fees are per vehicle for snowplay. There is a selfpay station. Firerings will be usable. Restrooms will be provided.<h2>Natural Features</h2>
