Trail Overview

If you are a beginner, or looking to test out a new vehicle, this is a great easy trail. The trail is short but provides beautiful views of Shaver Lake below. The last three quarters of a mile will appeal to those looking for a challenge. Great campspots available.

Difficulty

Difficult: Most of this trail is easy to moderate, but the last 1 3/4 mile is extremely difficult. Boulders are large, sharp and tightly spaced. Stock vehicle owners will need to hike after Wpt. 02.

Pretty simple quick rock crawling beginner trail. A couple narrow spots. A little rougher than it was last year but should not be rated anything higher than a 6.

The trail was fun for a beginner like myself. There where some spots where I could barely fit though some trees and tight turns. One spot where I had to have the right side of my rig crawl down a narrow border so I wouldn’t go in a trench and bottom out. 😬 That was fun. Last mile or so was really rough and hand to place rocks in spots to clear. It was a dusty fun trail. Slow and low gets you places 👍

Fun trail for newer 4X4 enthusiasts. This is one of the easier trails in the area but still not an easy trail. It’s good for people wanting to learn ins and outs of 4 wheeling.
