Trail Overview
This is a very fun section of the Bata FSR. It's not narrow so there is pretty much no pin striping. There are 2 water crossings which due to the drought of the last 4 months, had minimal water. But a fun off camber drop into the creek get your rig onto 3 wheels which is always fun. Much of the FSR is rocky versus gravel and dirt. These aren't big rocks, but its rough enough to slow you a bit. As this is a secondary road to access the James Lake area, and since it is deactivated, the road conditions will vary depending on weather conditions, snow melt, etc. I had a couple of sections where I had one bar of cell service. The lake has a decent sized rec site that sits right on the lakeside. Due to that drought, the lake levels in November 2022 is very low as seen int he attached pictures.
