Trail TTT (Toro Toro Toro (Bull Bull Bull)) is the main, off-road arterial for the MTB trails north of Oaxaca de Juarez (i.e. San Felipe del Agua). Referred to by locals as a segment of Las Carnivoras (The Carnivorous). This jeep trail / doubletrack has a wide, contour-following east section; a steep, rutted middle section, and a wide, gently climbing west end.

Trail TPR (Teléfono Polo Calle (Telephone Pole Road)) is mostly a dirt road. Its main value is in providing passage between the western items (e.g. San Felipe del Agua area trails) and Huayapam area items. Trail TPR follows obvious dirt roads (e.g. Las Palmas) but there is a hike-a-bike creek crossing on the western end of the route. Note that the west end connects with the east end of the LNR ((Libramiento Norte Road) ).

Trail T (Tostadora (Toaster)), a member of The Smoking Section collection, is a narrow singletrack that runs down a ridge twisting through the scrub oak and acacia bushes. The upper section, accessible from Trail HFR (High Flyer Ridge) has a well-worn tread and is in the taller, older scrub oak and wide-leaf trees. After a short traverse off of Trail HFR it dives down a ridge line through some short, twisty turns. It turns into a doubletrack tread right before its junction with Trail ML (Mechero Lado (Side Burner)). At this trail junction, cross Trail ML continuing straight downhill (south) through an opening in the vegetation straight across from where Trail T came into the trail junction. From this point, the tread is more prone to being hidden by vegetative growth but generally follows the fallline winding only as needed to avoid bushes. At the bottom, the trail falls to the east side of the ridge and exits onto Trail TTT (Toro Toro Toro (Bull Bull Bull)) along with the west-side ravine. Paths near the bottom that go right (west) tend to be rutted and covered by low vegetation. Thus, at the bottom as social paths abound, generally it is best to go left instead of right when given a choice.

Trail RR (Rojo Runout) is a short, wide singletrack trail that (along with Trail WFR (West Frontage Road)) encircles the top of the peak. This trail provides access to the top of Trail ED (Espina D (Spine)) and Trail Es (Escapula (Scapula)). Use Trail WFR to access Trail RR.

Trail PAP (Paso a Paso (Step by Step)) runs up the ridge from the semi-junction of Trail BK (Burro King (Donkey Kong)) and Trail C (Coctelera (Cocktail Shaker)). This shown/mapped section is only part of the trail as it continues up the ridge (North) and was unridable (IMNHO).
