Trail Overview

This short trail connects the Lake Hughes Truck Trail with Grass Mountain, FS 6N04. It is a mostly uneventful and short trail that, unlike others in the area, has quite a bit of shade thanks to young pine trees. There are a few switchbacks, ruts, and loose gravel, especially on the northern side of the trail near the access gate. When the trail meets 6N04, you will be afforded an unobstructed view of the Tehachapi Mountains, the Tehachapi Pass Wind Farm, the active mine on Soledad Mountain, and the immediate Antelope Valley.
