Trail Overview

This is a very scenic and relaxed trail until a few steep climbs that require 4-low. There are awesome views of Lake Isabella and the surrounding country. There are a few private signs that do not apply to those staying on the road, though the wording may give you pause. It is maintained by Trail Blazers 4WD.

This was my only my second trail ever to do. Wildtrack Bronco had me feeling confident the whole time. There were a plenty of deep ruts and holes to traverse, but nothing that was alarming. Kept the Bronco in 4A sport the whole time. The track is only wide enough to handle one car at a time. It was late, so we did not encounter any other drivers. But did encounter a few cows that had to move out of the way on the return trip. Didn’t finish all of the trail as it was late and we were getting hungry. Fun trail for the first true trail to conquer.
