Mingus View is a mountain biking route in the Verde Ranger District of Prescott National Forest in Arizona, managed by the Forest Service. The ride is about a mile long, with a one-way climb of 230 feet from a starting point at roughly 7,539 feet to a high point of about 7,539 feet. The route also has a total descent of 373 feet, so it works as a short loop or a connector to other trails in the area. The steepest part of the climb comes early, around 0.23 miles in, with a grade of about 12 percent. The route sits at a high elevation, so plan for cooler temperatures than you might expect at lower elevations. Playground Campground (Mingus) and the Mingus Mountain lake fishing area are both about 0.3 miles away. The Butterfly Trail #536 mountain biking route and the West Rim hike are each about 0.7 miles off.
