Trail Overview
While there are a few rough and bumpy areas with some rather steep descents and some climbing involved, it is unlikely 4WD will be needed. A vehicle with decent clearance should be enough for the main trail. Rain or snow could affect the road, so definitely check the weather conditions before you head out.

History
The picturesque Gardner Canyon derives its name from the pioneering Gardner family, who constructed the homestead amidst the rugged terrain of the canyon in the 1870s.
