Trail Overview
Sivils Mountain (FS 6S011C) is a short but spicy spur that feels less like a road and more like a tight path cut through the jungle. This trail is defined by its narrowness; it is a tight, twisty two-track that barely offers enough width for a standard Jeep to pass. Drivers will find themselves "sucking in their gut" to squeeze between encroaching bushes and heavy timber blowdowns that have been cut just wide enough to clear a vehicle. The surface is a loose mix of dirt and rock, featuring several steep, loose climbs that require 4WD to maintain traction. It serves as a rugged connector near the Greys Mountain area, leading explorers to a secluded dispersed campsite tucked away in the dense forest.

Difficulty
This trail earns a Rating 3 primarily due to its restrictive width and loose traction. There are no massive rock crawling obstacles, but the tight squeeze between cut blowdowns and brush guarantees "Sierra Pinstriping" for wider vehicles. The steep, loose dirt climbs require 4WD Low to prevent wheel spin and tread damage. It is a technical maneuvering challenge rather than a suspension test, requiring precise wheel placement to avoid sliding into trees or stumps.
