Trail Overview
This trail is a rough dirt road with mostly hardpack dirt, gravel, and small-sized rocks. There is some overgrowth, so plan to collect some pinstripes! The overgrowth gets worse as the trail progresses and is severe past the campground. This is an out-and-back trail ending just past the Joe Elliot Yellow Post Sites (camping), past this point, it is permanently gated and impassible even if it was not. There is a good mix of terrain here; some elevation change, forested sections, a bit of exposure, and great views of Mount Baldy and Los Angeles along the way at various pullouts and viewpoints. This would be a good intro to offroading trail and is very close to Los Angeles! You will not need to use 4WD and could probably manage without high clearance.

Difficulty
This can best be described as a rough dirt road. This would be a great intro to offroad trails as there are some sections with hills, but nothing technical.
