Difficulty
Ruts, off-camber sections, and drainage humps appear throughout the route. The hard-packed dirt surface becomes slippery when wet, amplifying the challenge of the off-camber sections in particular. The small water crossings are generally minor but can deepen significantly after storms and warrant caution in those conditions.
