It was almost 6 years since my last time on this trail; the first with my JL. The first 1/4 of the trail was rough with ruts and some rocks. After that it is smooth with a few rutts nothing to be concerned. Only people on the trail were communications companies doing maintenance to the towers on Toro Peak. Some were blocking my parking spot at the large space. So I found a shady space at a campsite and took photos.

Easy trail very scenic beautiful greenery highly recommend using a vehicle with some clearance as some spots are rocky and off camber for a normal vehicle.

Trail has various rocks which slow down the journey to the top, various pull off areas when you encounter other trucks. Great views, no campers and great trip to 8,800 ft. Also a good opportunity for some pinstripes.

Nice, relatively easy trail that I could do pretty much stress-free on my stock rig. Saw crossover suv’s coming up. Also be careful of dirt bikes, had to slam on my brakes a few times when they came around a bend. A 2wd sedan could probably make it up but may scrape bottom a few times. Hiked up to Toro peak from the closed gate, which was a steep 0.4 miles each way

Completed with a stock height FW. Overall the trail was fairly easy. The first 2/3 of the trail had a few rutted out areas and muddy sections, but fairly simple. The last 1/3 section of the trail had a bit of snow and frozen puddles. I stopped at the last rocky pullout before the climb. I saw two other vehicles headed up when coming down.

The trail was great the first 2/3 of the way up, beyond that there was areas of ice and snow. I turned around after a few sections of ice and camped at one of the yellow post campsites.

Nice easy trail. Some nice designated campsites and plenty of dispersed camping areas. I only saw 2 groups of people on a Memorial Day Sunday. I'll come back here.

Muddy and snowy in shade. About 8.5 miles in it became a bit too deep of snow to push with our van.

Easy trail all the way up to Sant Rosa Campground. Saw 1 group of dirt bikes and a local resident. We started at approximately 8am with no one seen until half way up. Any all wheel drive or 4x4 can make it up this trail depending on conditions. Exposed trail at the beginning but once you hit the trees line it is a beautifully shaded trail. Great views of the Palm Springs and San Jacinto mountain.
