Trail Overview

This trail starts with decent access for SUVs and trucks. After a mile or two, the road becomes quite rutted with some big puddles and low-lying areas that could be challenging for a rig that is not set up properly. At approximately five and a half miles, you hit a very challenging climb with very deep ruts that could get almost any vehicle stuck. Upgrades to the deep ruts will be required to permit access through to a beautiful viewpoint.
