Trail Overview

This route takes you to the top of Midway Ridge. The trail starts as a nice wide road. The road is maintained very well and follows a mid-slope road. The trail narrows at the first creek crossing and winds through the forest. At this point, it's still easy for a side-by-side or quad. A dirt bike is more challenging but doable. The first real challenge of this trail is the hill climb up to the top of Midway Ridge. A stock side-by-side can do it. It's only difficult on a dirt bike. Once on the top of the ridge, take some time to look around on a clear day. The rest of the trail takes you along the ridge to another convergence of trails and the picnic bench.

The trail is only meant for ATVs or smaller once you get close to the north end the trail. This app has the entire trail rated for jeeps but it’s impossible to finish this trail in a jeep due to narrow roads shown in the picture. Still had an amazing time though!
