About

Lemon Squeezer is a short, technical singletrack trail in the Lunch Loop Trails System near Grand Junction, Colorado. Located between the Tabeguache and High Noon trails, the 0.2-mile route descends a boulder-strewn hillside. The trail is rated difficult for mountain bikers due to its technical nature, featuring slickrock, loose rocks, tree roots, and ledges. The defining feature is an extremely tight squeeze between two large boulders in the lower section, which gives the trail its name. While open to uphill and downhill travel, mountain bikers prefer the downhill direction. The trail connects with Pucker Up and High Noon, allowing for loop variations. It is accessible year-round, with peak usage from April through October. Parking is available at the Tabeguache/Lunch Loop trailhead. The trail is open to hikers and equestrians as well.
