Trail Overview

The trail starts in the parking lot, where you have two deep water crossings that you want to stay to the left of the water crossings. From there, you start going up part of the mountain. The trail has markings for the trails that branch off of the main trail. You will experience hill climbs, water crossings, and some steep descending hills that you must go over on the way back. You can also find a lot of mud in the area.

Trail is very easy to a certain point. Every deep water crossing has a bypass. Deepest I saw was right at 4'. I have 42" tires on my Roxor, water level was above it. Bottom was not muddy. My wife drove our Highlifter on 32s through it with ease. The steep pass up to Monument is tore up and muddy. There are 2 alternate routes up. The middle route is washed out, but still passable with a low clearance SXS. Far right route is clear and rocky. Easy ascent. The top of monument was dry, windy and cold.

It was good. Took a 30 year old atv out and made it to the top. The only sketchy part is when you get about 2/3rd to the end. There’s a dried out river but you can see the deep ruts caused some deep puddles. You can see in the photo. Other then that it was good
