The Zephyr trail is located north of Moab, Utah where it connects the Moab Brands and Klonzo Mountain Biking Areas. The trail itself is 4 miles one-way with 3.2 miles of the trail following a jeep road and the other 0.8 miles being a singletrack mountain biking route. At the Moab Brands end of the trail it begins off of the Brand M Loop and at the Klonzo end it connects to the Midway trail near Big Joe Bend.

The Hotdog trail is located in the Klonzo Mountain Biking Area about 12 miles north of Moab, Utah. The trail begins off of the Edge trail, near Parking Area A, and heads east above a wash until it makes a gentle climb up to the Midway trail at which point it continues for a short distance until it comes to an end at the Red Hot trail. Hotdog is one of the newer trails in the South Klonzo area and there are some signs still around that suggest riding it from east to west until it becomes better packed. As of this post the trail is well packed and suitable for either direction of travel.

The Edge trail is located in the Klonzo Mountain Biking Area about 12 miles north of Moab, Utah. The trail begins off of the Willow Springs Road, across from Parking Area A, and follows the edge of the hill to its upper end on the Midway trail at the point where the Red Hot trail ends and the Roller Coaster trail begins. Along the way it makes connections with the Hotdog and Topspin trails making it a good option for getting around the South Klonzo area from Parking Area A.
