Gordon Mine

About a half mile up there is a pretty decent wash that I don’t think I would have cleared in a stock suspension. I would definitely say it it’s closer to 5/10 not 3/10.

I went up this trail jn my stock tacoma. I was in 4-Lo most of the way. The trail definitely requires high clearance and 4x4. I have 9” clearance with stock and i had to get o it and move some rocks to make the clearance other than that my vehicle handled really well. Had to take it slow but i managed. Atvs or polaris’s would probably be better suited for this trail. Where i got confused was that the road was opened the entire way but most of the way up there were private property signs blasted. I stayed in the trail the entire time. I didnt make it up to the mine due to my putting a dent in my truck it kind of bummed me out but the road does go all the way up. I stopped about 3/4 of the way. Still plenty of great views and spotted grey wolf poop. If you do any hiking stay in the trail as there are the no tress passing signs and stay prepped for wildlife encounters to be safe. Other than that it was very beautiful and i dont regret going. Next time i go back i will be going back up in a polaris.

Definitely need a 4x4 . We were happy no one else was on the trail. Not many spots to pass, we are somewhat new to off roading but have been out on the trails. I would rate it higher than a 3. It’s beautiful though.
