Trail Overview
Mitchell Mine is a nice, easy in-and-out summer trail for a leisurely stroll through the forest. It's also a good trail for beginners to get used to how their vehicle feels while off-road. The surface is easy enough for stock AWD vehicles with street tires, and at least a full six inches of clearance. Stock 4x4 trucks with all-terrain tires should have no problems, and can probably complete the drive in 2WD. Deep snow through March makes it more challenging and requires more vehicle clearance and possibly a wench.

Difficulty
The majority of the road is packed dirt, with light pitch-and-roll angles. The trail does sustain damage during the winter, but is still easily traversed once the snow clears.
