Trail Overview

Trail Overview This iconic technical offshoot is a true gauntlet designed to test the skills of even the most seasoned riders. Branching off from the primary dirt road, the trail carries a name bestowed upon it by the "Goggle Packers", an early, legendary group of local riders. While the lore suggests they are a kind-hearted bunch, their reputation for having "a few screws loose" is reflected in the sheer intensity of the path they blazed. It is a high-adrenaline route that demands total focus and a healthy respect for the rugged history of the area.

Difficulty

The difficulty is high, characterized by a brutal combination of washed-out trail sections and super deep ruts that can easily swallow a tire or high-center a vehicle. Navigating these obstacles requires precise technical maneuvers and consistent momentum. You must also stay extremely alert for oncoming traffic, as the narrow, eroded nature of the trail leaves very little room for passing or sudden corrections.
