Trail Overview
Trail 314 is a fun, moderately challenging trail on the south side of the park. This area tends to stay wetter than the north end, so you'll run into more mud, water crossings, and slick spots. The terrain is a mix of hard-packed dirt, loose rock from old washouts, and some standing water that can be as deep as 18 inches after heavy rain. The trail can get a little tight in spots, with a few sharp turns that might be tricky for full-size rigs or longer wheelbase vehicles. It's a solid option if you're looking to explore the southern trails and want a mix of terrain and obstacles.
Difficulty
Trail 314 is rated a Level 3 due to its moderate terrain and the variety of surface conditions riders may encounter. The trail features a mix of hard-packed dirt, loose rock from previous washouts, and occasional standing water or mudholes, especially in wetter seasons. While it doesn't include major obstacles, the tighter trail width and a few sharp turns can present challenges for full-size or long-wheelbase vehicles. Navigating these areas, along with slippery sections and potential ruts, requires attentive driving. These factors contribute to its moderate rating, making it best suited for high-clearance rigs with some off-road experience.
