Trail Overview

This trail narrows in places, especially where downed trees are common. The main obstacle is a very deep mud hole that requires a high-clearance vehicle to pass safely, though a bypass is available for smaller vehicles. You’ll also encounter a few rocky sections that can be challenging for stock vehicles.

Did this trail today mostly accidentally but made it through in my Chevy Colorado trail boss. A handful of mud holes one pretty big, not very deep not a problem quite a few places of big rocks, but I was able to manage even with only about a 10 inch clearance.. one spot with some pretty big rocks and a small tree hanging across the road, but I was able to move to the right side and get underneath without having to remove the small tree about a 4 inch diameter tree
