Trail Overview
Rincon FS 22S51 runs parallel to Sherman Pass Road, rolling up and down dirt hills with dramatic views of the canyon below and surrounding mountains, including Brush Creek and Brush Creek Falls. The trail eventually drops into the valley, where additional trails branch off for further exploration, and dispersed camping opportunities are available. The trail narrows progressively as it continues and ends at the bottom of a small hill at Brush Creek.
Difficulty
Ruts, uneven surfaces, rocks, and slight off-camber sections appear throughout, all under 12 inches deep. A couple of small creek crossings add variability depending on season and recent rainfall. The single vehicle width combined with the progressive narrowing toward the terminus requires steady and deliberate driving throughout, particularly on the hill sections overlooking the canyon below.
