Trail Overview

Easy graded logging road in the beginning 1st mile, then it becomes decent rocky terrain, some small climbs, nothing hard. Once you take off from the green route on OnX, this is a really easy road, unfortunately at the locked gate (Sierra Pacific Ground) you need to hike into the 17 acres of USFS ground that Sierra Pacific has landlocked.

It was raining most of the day, though the road wasn't too bad. The river crossing was still barely worth mentioning. Plenty of hunters up there. Wear bright colors during hunting season.

Easy run. Zero technical areas. Mainly forest service roads, with the occasional ruts and dips.
