Trail Overview

Uneven, rutted dirt trail with loose rocks and sand. Muddy conditions should be expected during the rainy season. The trail is primarily one vehicle wide with some portions wide enough for passing oncoming traffic. Steep cliffs and drop-offs are common throughout the trail, as well as sharp winding curves. Caution should be taken to avoid oncoming traffic.

Great views and beautiful weather. Airing down helps for a smoother ride. No major obstacles, pretty easy trail. Went on a Sunday and was surprised there weren't a lot of other folks out there.

After the weekend rain/snow you van expect a lot of mud and at higher elevation slippery snow. I managed to go all the way up but there were some difficult sections because of ruts hidden under the snow and a lot of slushy snow. Lifted vehicle and lockers are recommended. Be safe out there.

Access Description

To access the trail head, take Highway 74 to Pyramid Peak road. From there you will make a short drive through a residential area until the road end at Hop Patch Spring Road. Turn left and drive until you hit the trail head.
