Trail Overview

Dripping Springs is a narrow, rutted, and rocky climb featuring a mix of loose rock, embedded stone, and short, steep grades. The trail gains approximately 1,000 feet in elevation when traveling south to north, with the majority of that elevation gain occurring on the southern half of the route. It includes a small number of rock ledges up to approximately 12 inches in height, along with occasional shallow mud holes that can become slick in wet conditions. A defining feature of this trail is a pronounced rut that runs down the steepest sections, reaching depths of up to 36 inches. While the rut is mostly avoidable, it crosses the trail diagonally several times, requiring careful line choice. Overall, this trail presents a moderate challenge and is best suited for experienced drivers or riders with high-clearance, capable vehicles.
