Difficulty

Mostly one lane wide, with places to pull off the trail to pass and/or turn around, this trail is a rocky but easy drive through the surrounding beautiful countryside. High pastures with long grasses and incredible views of the surrounding hills and buttes make this trail an easy one to explore while getting out of the city without the concern of major obstacles. Please close all gates behind you, as this area is a grazing area for ranchers.
