Trail Overview
This challenging route travels across the higher trail system in the area. It's an SXS or motorcycle's dream with steep shelves, loose hills, and steep off-camber sections with severe drops into valleys below with improper tire placement. Be sure to watch for oncoming traffic. Many of the rigs out here are running flags which is a huge help. Heavy 4x4s may want to avoid attempting the trail as the loose off-camber sections may give out. If they can even make it out, there are a few lovely camping options for one or two rigs. 5G Verizon cell service fades from full to one bar and back again.
