Halfmoon Gulch

A couple of people got stuck trying to pass this area, including myself…

Beautiful trail and good for beginner to intermediate drivers. A stock 4Runner Off-road on highway tires followed us up. The water crossing right after North Halfmoon Lakes trail head was about 2’ at its deepest spot. My stock 4R TRD made it through fine with no issues. Minor pin striping possible the higher you go but is avoidable if you go slow.

Easy trail. Didn’t do the river crossing

Fun trail, some areas require higher clearance or good driving skills. I was in a stock 4 door Rubicon. I could’ve bottomed out in some areas if I didn’t take a specific path through parts of the trail with large divots. There’s an area where you cross a creek. I got through no problem. But just after that there is an area with a large amount snow. It doesn’t look too deep but is much deeper than it appears. I ended up getting stuck in it and requiring help to get pulled out. I’m 5’10 and when I jumped out into it, the snow went up the my waist. There is a spot you can easily turn around at once you get to the snow.

Early trail leading up to the Mt. Massive trailhead was rather busy but we only saw one other vehicle beyond the water crossing heading up towards the mine. Awesome trail!
