Trail Overview

As of May 26, 2023. This road is accessible by vehicles of higher clearance than sedans. This is because the fire roads are not as flat and maintained as Google Maps makes them out to be. When driving on the road, there will be moderately size ruts, and bumps running across the width of the road due to some water erosion. 2wd SUVs as well as higher clearance Subarus can access this trail. The beginning of the trail will be a well-maintained gravel road but it turns into stretches of road littered with moderate-sized ruts and potholes throughout the width of the road. You will be swaying back and forth when going over them. Some sections will be worn down due to use, so expect rough, uneven roads with higher-centered roads. Near the end of this trail will have roads made of baseball-sized rocks. This road will be accessible with 2wd, 4wd is not needed. Driving through this road with a sedan may cause the vehicle to be high-centered, so it is not recommended. Multiple sedans were seen parked in turnout areas. Sections of the road with less gravel will have high dust levels that other vehicles will kick up. When driving through the area, the beginning section will be shaded by tall trees. As you leave the brush, the shade will be sparse as you drive cliffside.

Locked gate, no sign, overgrown trail looks like nobody has been on it in quite a while.

One other car passed on the trail. Was a fairly simple trail with one little pit of mud and some uneven terrain. Nice views, and lots of little pull off areas. Trail ends short but there were a few cars parked at the end.

This trail is very easy. When we went there were some decent sized mud puddles and ruts. I would say high clearance 2WD could make it, but make sure you know how to go through a mud pit. It’s a beautiful drive, the scenery is very nice. There is a creepy tunnel at the end, have not been able to find out why it is there or what it is for, but it’s full of standing water. There might be a hiking trail at the end, but we didn’t check.

This road stops at the big opening in the road with the creepy tunnel. Look to be a place people go to shooting. The road is a walking trail beyond that.
